Driving down that road

Wondering where I'd go

Running from something I don't know

Knowing this was never the plan

As soon as I left something broke

Inside of me I felt a poke

A twang of fear, a glimpse of hope

Most likely some of both

I've been dealt out of the game

Left my hometown and changed my name

Throw my chances in the air

Hoping God will treat me fair

I've been dealt out of the game

Standing on that empty corner alone

Wrinkles in my face, etched like stone

Laying by the river without my clothes

Knowing I could never go home

I've been dealt out of the game

Left my hometown and changed my name

Throw my chances in the air

Hoping God will treat me fair

I've been dealt out of the game
