Every time I gamble, I lose

[vera]

Every time I gamble, I lose all my money.
What starts out as fun, ends far from being funny!
Every time I gamble I also lose control
What starts out as one bet, sends me on a “roll”.
Sometimes I tell myself I’m “normal”
That everything is fine
But deep down in my soul
I know I’ve “crossed the CG line”.
And when a gambler reaches
This sad, pathetic place
Alternative approaches
Are all we have to face!
Give up the thought of winning,
Forget about the fun
Wave goodbye to all the “sinning”
Resolve that we are “done!”
