do you enjoy this
this random game
do you like ripping
open your own heart
and spilling your blood
for the world to see
like chess
I can calculate your every move
what you think
what you plan
and I can make it backfire
are you tired yet
of losing every chance you have
it's my turn to do some damage
I just can't pass up the chance
I could go on forever
but it's you I'm not so sure about
when are you going to quit
when are you going to wave
your convenient white flag
and surrender
it's never going to come to a close
you see
I will never let you forget
push it aside
and move on
because if I can't
I'm sure not going to let you
