Betrayed By The Game


2016. People said you sucked. 
But I think it was just the end of our bad luck.
I separated from my friends before they ditched me for partners and kids.
And I dropped out of college, to obtain my own knowledge; moved to Florida.
But I still miss my old friends. Our parties, and getting to relax again. 
So I'm goin' back to Colorado - gonna try not to live like desperado.
So open the door and set fire to 2017!
You never know what's in store.
Just stop to smell the flowers; the world will keep spinning.
