Common Luck
In traffic it's tragic,
The crash you drove past,
5 minutes sooner and it would've been your ass,
The store you just left,
Was a victim of theft,
Just a few moments prevented your death,
Through the drivethrough quick,
The burger you missed,
Made the person behind you deadly sick,
Common luck is never noticed never even seen,
But if we didn't have it who knows where we'd be
