JUST A GAME

Playing? 

You were playing?

Well, I am glad you had your fun

Lying

I call it Lying

When you pretend to love someone

Leaving?

Now you are leaving?

You don't care how I feel

Tell me

Won't you tell me

In your game, was one thing real

~~~*Chorus*~~~

Were you playing when you held me 

Promised not to break my heart

Were the cards all stacked against me

Did you plan this from the start

Were you lying when you told me

That to love me was your fate

I was dreaming up our future

But to you 

It was 

A game

~~*~~

Taken

Taken for a fool

I hung on every word you said

Foolish

I was so foolish

I should have walked away instead

Lonely

I was so lonely

The perfect mark for your game

Leave me

Go on and leave me

Leave me crying, loss and shame

~~~*Lyrical Bridge*~~~

You were playing, you were lying, now your leaving

Tell me please

I was taken, I was foolish, so damned lonely

Can't you see

You could stay here, and keep playing, be a winner

In your game

You have hurt me, but I need you , my love's stronger

Than the shame

~~*~~

~~~*Chorus*~~~

Were you playing when you held me 

Promised not to break my heart

Were the cards all stacked against me

Did you plan this from the start

Were you lying when you told me

That to love me was your fate

I was dreaming up our future

But to you 

It was 

A game
