You play the game
So clever you must think it you are
But I see you so clear right now and your helping but at the same time setting me up.
And when will I learn not to let you get away with it?
I know I should say something, but you won’t listen now.
I’m tired of fighting the battle you manipulated since the beginning of time.
So I will let you play, and maybe I exit the game altogether.
Then you win but so do I and I think I will be happier.
And you will be lost as you loved playing these games as if I was so naive I couldn’t see what you were doing.
But I didn’t care what you thought as I knew who to trust, and I know it’s not you.
