When? Why? How?

What are the odds?

Of being born when you were

Of saying I love you when you did 

Of being the person that you are

What are the odds?.. of them calling your name

of being called to fame.. of being immersed in that pain..

What are the odds? 

When is fate going to work? When will fate stop the hurt?

How does it work? Can I stop the pain?

Why does fate determine what I lose or what I gain?

Fate. 

When is it going to work for me?

Will it work today?

I'll go ask the Fates..

And see what they say.
