Game Over??
They say fool me once
Shame on you
Fool me twice
Shame on me
But what about the third time??
Who is to blame??
You...for hurting me so many times?
Or me...for allowing you to do it?
It's gotten to the point
Where I don't know what's right
And what's wrong
When it's "we"
Everything feels right
Even though I know it'll be a matter of time before something goes wrong
But when it's just "me"
I have to paint on a smile,
I have to constantly hide my hurt, so nobody else will know what's going on
Everyone's always complimenting me about how I'm such a "strong" person
But am I really that strong??
I let you get under my skin...Are you my weakness??
Or...am I weak for keeping everythng bottled up inside...for not letting loose??
This game you play is too complicated...Too many rules & regulations...
Either way I lose...I don't want to play anymore
So...Is the game over??
