Gamble

Plain useless I say, plain useless every day
The fight to find the value in reality
Yet onward we drive passions purpose to derive
Finding mostly only stymied walls of worry

To decide to never play assures the fate of any
So we gamble yet another day uncertain
The parlor tricks moving most to dance all-in
With hopes to see what lies behind the curtain
