the game lyrics

How have you been? Nice to see you again!
How quickly these conversations seem to end
You meet a friend, every now and then
How quickly these relations turn into trends

Put all your walls up and open your windows
And close all your doors
You catch yourself standing in front of the mirror
And now you need more

So what do you wish for
To catch you as you're falling?
So easy to ignore
But now you hear it calling again

I wouldn't want to be you
(This lonely game that you play)
Between your walls you confuse
(Every heart that you break)
So afraid that you'll lose
(Always a void to replace)
I wouldn't want to play you

You try and pretend, the truth is hard to bend
How easy these translations can be read
What if you were led to play a different game instead?
How hard these frustrations are, they are to mend

Put all your walls up and open your windows
And close all your doors
You catch yourself standing in front of the mirror
And now you need more

So what do you wish for
To catch you as you're falling?
So easy to ignore
But now you hear it calling again

I wouldn't want to be you
(This lonely game that you play)
Between your walls you confuse
(Every heart that you break)
So afraid that you'll lose
(Always a void to replace)
I wouldn't want to play you

Does it matter to you?
Does it matter to you?
Does it matter to you?

Does it matter to what do you wish for
To catch you as you're falling?
So easy to ignore
But now you hear it calling again

I wouldn't want to be you
(This lonely game that you play)
Between your walls you confuse
(Every heart that you break)
So afraid that you'll lose
(Always a void to replace)
I wouldn't want to play you

Just wait
Just wait
Just wait
No!
