I do it anyway.
I'm tired of playing this game
but I do it anyway.

I can't help it.
I can't stop.
It gets me into trouble.
It keeps me on edge.
Sometimes I can't sleep
But who needs sleep when I have you.

I lied
I don't have you and I may never
It's for the better says my brain
but it hurts says my heart
I don't know which to trust
They both deceive me
Time after time
but so do you.

You've left your mark
have I left mine ?
I'm done for now
I can't and I won't
wait forever
This game is endless
So I'm closing up shop
I'm packing up the puzzle pieces
and never looking back
Please add any comments you have!
