dodge ball

you hear the same words I say but they mean something completely different than what you think

complement becomes attack, love pat becomes slap in the face

now one drink becomes ***** run

now this game is no fun

dodging those bullets or making them stop in mid air, neither will occur

now say what you mean and I'll try to do the same
