The Game & The Rules

Oh no, just another heartache

Oh no, just another lovebreak

Time and time again i make the same mistake and throw it all away

Oh no, bitten by a rattlesnake

Oh no, just another earthquake

Every time i have to put the pieces back together the same way

It seems there's only one game i can play

I can always try, i can always fail

Just a small mistake, it's all self-betrayal

Oh no, self-addicted madness

Oh no, self-inflicted sadness

Once i lay my hands on things

I always wanted i have to let go

It seems there's only one game that i know

There's a shadow in my mind

Leaves a trace down in my soul

From all angles a reflection of the night from far below

I can sometimes feel the cold

I can sometimes feel the heat

I can sometimes feel the earth rotating underneath my feet

So my hands begin to shake

And my head is spinning round

And the room that i am standing in is filling up with sound

And a wise voice from within

Warns me of this game of fools

It is time to turn the table now, it is time to change the rules!

Now the only way is up

There is no more going down

Watch me make a single move,

Which takes me to a higher ground

There is danger to the left

There is evil on the right

So the only way is forward,

I can see the guiding light

I just see the road ahead

I am never looking back

I'm relying on my compass leading to the fastest track

And the light is shining hard

And the light is shining warm

And the light is sending warnings

My way for the coming storm

Oh no, never never again

Oh no, will i make the same mistake
