The Game of Us

We are perpetually stuck In a game we both made Both changing the rules each time that we play Hoping to win but knowing we'll lose Keep losing each point we're trying to prove. You hide your emotions behind a veil of deceit Wanting me to surrender and lay at your feet But if I give you what you think you want This game is over before it really got to start You're afraid to show how you really feel I do the same, It's part of this deal. If one shall win, then both shall lose So we dance around pretending to use Playing this game is all of the fun When we lose our fire we're really done So you fake left and I fake right Holding on for one more night.
