Crooked..
It's cold outside, but yet it's hot
as boring as it seems it's not
My eyes are crying tears
for reasons that are shown
A pain is shooting through my chest
but why, I don't know
I sit around everyday
alone in silence
without a word to say
Listening to music, eases my mind
the place I am at, it's so hard to find
I make an entrance and soon disappear
my mind is stolen, but my body's still there
I look so deep into your eyes as you look into mines
and wonder if your love's for real or maybe I'm just blind
Don't tell me I'm the one for you, don't tell me that your love is true
when so gracefully you said I do, when someone else confronted you
Receiving them and dumping me
was it your lowest cost, or highest fee
Roll the dice and take your chance
I'm smarter now about romance
You may have won the battle, but I sure won the war
what goes around, comes around, that's what you have in store
Monopoly may be the game, you tried so hard to play
but don't ever underestimate me
I'm not naive as they say.
