    Smoke and Mirrors

    People say the same thing
    Love isn't real, its just a game;
    The odds slated against you
    And what is the price to play?

    One's sleep, one's Sanity?
    And every move to tame
    one's innermost feelings,
    To end always in vain?

    Why play this then?
    Why waste the time?
    The pawns are the only ones hurt.
    Will it ever end up fine?

    Why do I still chase after you?
    It always ends the same.
    Every seeming success,
    Is just a step closer to pain.

    I'm trying to hold on.
    I'm trying not to lose my grip.
    But after so many failed attempts,
    I can tell I'm starting to slip.
    I wish there were an easy way out.
    I wish I could accept how things are.
    But I can't believe this is right
    And until it is, I have to fight.

    Forget this bullshit
    Just leave her with her lies.
    For I've come to realize
    That I'm the only one who tries.

    But then I hear your laugh,
    and then I see your face
    Perhaps another chance
    is all that it will take?

    Now you've ditched me again
    Can't you tell it to me straight?
    I only want the truth!
    Just say it to my face!

    Why do I still chase after you?
    It always ends the same.
    Every seeming success,
    Is just a step closer to pain.

    Now I'm through holding on
    My turns over, its your move
    Where we go from here
    I leave that up to you.
    So just make a decision
    And think before you choose
    After this I won't be turning back
    This time I'm serious; I can promise that.
