Reverse

I live each night as if it's my last Mostly because I wish it was It's too late to make a different past So I don't reminisce what I didnt have I just take pride in what I did Even though I didn't have it And I don't care where this road ends I'm the one who chose a different path I've thrown so much change at the wishing well That the water tastes a little coppery I've had my heart broken, my purpose stolen I went my way And was a victim of highway robbery The winner of the opposite of the lottery But instead of letting it bother me I respond with reverse psychology And live this life as if it will not end And it's shown no signs of stopping me So until the day it does I now promise to you solemnly That until the dirt's on top of me Instead of another suicide statistic I intend to be an anomaly.
