You don't talk to me anymore always claiming you didn't hear me So now I've stopped keeping score pretend that I'm no longer listening My backs to the wall, it's killing me Did I imagine what we once were Have I made up all those memories all of a sudden they've become a blur Truth is that even if you whisper I lean into every word you say You make me feel like a beggar Just another game that you play

Just Another Game You Play
You don't talk to me anymore always claiming you didn't hear me So now I've stopped keeping score pretend that I'm no longer listening My backs to the wall, it's killing me Did I imagine what we once were Have I made up all those memories all of a sudden they've become a blur Truth is that even if you whisper I lean into every word you say You make me feel like a beggar Just another game that you play
It has been my experience that when couples no longer have anything to say, that it' is when you have a lot to talk about.
