The Game We Play

Andreas Johnson

you say it’s solid poetry 
it’s what you want to see 
some sensuality 
when you cry, I just can’t prove you wrong 
no I just play along 
I guess it turns you on... 
THE GAMES WE PLAY 
THE SHOWS WE GIVE 
THE HEARTS WE BREAK 
WE LIVE THROUGH THIS... THE GAMES WE PLAY 
do right, it’s getting critical 
are we to cynical... 
could use a miracle... 
THE GAMES WE PLAY 
THE SHOWS WE GIVE 
MY HEART YOU BREAK 
I LIVE THROUGH THIS... THE GAMES WE PLAY 
THE GAMES WE PLAY 
THE RULES WE MAKE 
LIKE SECRET CODES, WE CAN+T ESCAPE 
THE GAMES WE PLAY... 
you say there really is no doubt 
we just can’t do without... 
THE GAMES WE PLAY 
THE SHOWS WE GIVE 
THE HEARTS WE BREAK 
WE LIVE THROUGH THIS 
THE GAMES WE PLAY 
THE RULES WE BEND 
WITH LOVERS LUST, WE WILL DEFEND 
THE GAMES WE PLAY... 
you say it’s solid poetry.
