Just A Game

by Matthias L. - Capricorn

I know it's too late
To say what I ought to say
I wish you'd find out without me, with me 

Oh I knew the words came not quite right
When I saw you leaving from behind

It was you, I feel there can't be a mistake
It's only you that makes me hide myself within
It's only you I'd like but just can't take
Is it only you that I maybe still can win

Let me think about it for a while
Why don't I uncover
Your name and escape
From my life in a lie
Come what may, there's nothing worse
Than fearing the dark
When you're all alone on the streets

Give me your hand, I'd like to tell you how I feel
But you don't know I can't yet say
I'd like to tell you what I've seen all in a dream

Been there, done that
I wish that I could say
How much you mean to me

But I can't let it out
I still hope that you can see
It's hard to make the first step
When I never learned to walk

Pain again
Can you understand this feeling
It's never been like that before
Slowly from the inside
My soul disintegrates

I tried just not to care
Said it wasn't worth it
But I failed in that as well

Carry me home, don't know if we belong
Though I feel the chances might be good
So please tell me the rules
Maybe I'll try the game

Reason for writing:

    Heh... pretty obvious, isn't it?
