Well isn't this the way that things always seem to go?

Somebody's screaming crying, other one says"I don't know"

And you're pretending that there's nothing here for us to lose

How do I let go when I never thought I'd have to?

Back and forth and upside down

Just shut your mouth don't make a sound

So make your move, don't let me down

The curtains up, the time is now

And why didn't you say

That I think it's best if we both walk away?

Instead I played into your games

Trying to rebuild something you tried to break

But you just stayed quiet

They said"love is fun" but didn't mention all the tests

And you call the shots to feel like you're above the rest

You say have a seat you're tryna keep your hold on me

Look at me wide-eyed but I ran all out of sympathy

Two steps forward, one step back

My Heart is slowly losing track

Left or right, but you don't care

I scream and fight to keep you near

And why didn't you say

That I think it's best if we both walk away?

Instead I played into your games

Trying to rebuild something you tried to break

But you just stayed quiet

Quiet down don't make a sound

Just let me think we'll work it out

To waste my time you feed me lies

The clock is running out of time

And I'll never forget the things you said to me

So don't pretend that it's just the way it's meant to be

I know I got so far with trying to make it work again

And when we fought so hard it didn't matter in the end

And why didn't you say

That I think it's best if we both walk away?

Instead I played into your games

Trying to rebuild something you tried to break

But you just stayed quiet

Back and forth and upside down, my heart is slowly losing track (but you just stayed)

Just waste my time and feed me lies, the curtains closed we're out of time (quiet)

Instead I got lost in your games

Playing a part in

Your masterpiece

But you just stayed quiet
