Ticket 2 Ride

Written across the universe

Each day birthing a new star

Wishes sent skyward

Traveling both near and far

We can choose to see darkness

Or be drawn to the distant light

Like a beacon sending out signals

Soon we will catch the next flight

When time dissolves all we see

Into nothing, just ancient dust

That faint but steadfast message

Stands apart and earns our trust

Counting our treasures and titles

Ringing up the amassed assets

Sitting in the evening glow

Barely thinking about any regrets

That smile is worth a cool million

A full heart secures the jackpot

Those memories will always payout

You may have landed in Camelot
