It’s all just a game This is something I now know Power over another Is this a game of telephone? You sent your message down the wire Knowing that you were a liar But my mind was too young & naïve And the words that I received Were jumbled And like a football being fumbled You we’re careless with my heart I was slowly falling apart But all you cared about was the score But life is meant for so much more So I forfeited, I left the game And to you, I'm just a name.

The Game
It’s all just a game This is something I now know Power over another Is this a game of telephone? You sent your message down the wire Knowing that you were a liar But my mind was too young & naïve And the words that I received Were jumbled And like a football being fumbled You we’re careless with my heart I was slowly falling apart But all you cared about was the score But life is meant for so much more So I forfeited, I left the game And to you, I'm just a name.
