Discover the story of the song > Winning – Emily Haines

The protagonist talks about how they never read books and only read magazines, and they spend a lot of money on betting. They say that if it looks like they are going to win, they haven't been winning. Knives don't support them, but they still wait and count on them. They talk about fixing things that are bad and making things right, and that it takes a long time but they have plenty of time. The protagonist mentions that there is a part of themselves that is too small to lose, and that includes all of them and all of their partner. They talk about counting until their last breath, and how what they have created doesn't make sense. They ask what a wolf is without a pack, and talks about opening their chest and taking the heart from it. The protagonist asks if they can record their partner when they talk, and they ask how their partner got something that they don't know. They say they don't know how to help, they only know how to hound. They mention a place that they shouldn't visit because it will harm their smile and they are glad that their partner didn't go there. They say that all their songs will become lullabies eventually. They repeat that they can fix anything that is bad or wrong and make it right. They mention that it's gone, so it's time to say goodbye, but they have plenty of time because they have all the time in the world.
