Master of the Game

This one is a little cheesy, but I feel like sometimes a teenage girl has to be.

 One of your smiles,

Could melt my knees,

Your eyes were my sun,

Your voice the breeze.

 

I was in the palm of your hand

But you didn’t take care

You dropped me to the ground

Out of sight, out of your hair.

 

But I still wanted to be

Right next to you, in your arms

Until the day,

You made me see through your charms.

 

You were so perfect

You couldn’t even see

All of the things

You did wrong to me.

 

You played my broken heart-strings

You were the master of the game

Made me think that I was special,

Then taught me we’re all the same.

 

Don’t try to tell me you’re sorry

You’ve already told too many lies,

But you might want to fix what’s broken

Before you’re faced with more goodbyes.

 

There may be more still waiting.

A few of those who haven’t seen,

That you went and broke my heart,

But said your hands were clean.

 

You did more than you set out to

To crush me was never planned,

But you still act as though your innocent,

When you’re the leader of the damned.

 

I feel like I’m the only one

Who sees this isn’t new

And I still can’t trust that you will change

For your words were never true.

 

 

You’re everything

That’s bad for me

Yet I still find things in you,

That no one else can see.

 

There’s a chance that you’re not good enough

Still, no matter what you do

All the great things you never say

Make me fall in love with you.
