the window panes are steamed up from the inside and routine’s the only real foe. now take it easy, boy, you’re far too uptight. you don’t know how to play the game. i know I gotta pull myself together but it is way too easy letting go. and right as I get lost I’m lost forever. i'm never gonna be the same. oh, what a splendid play, you’re queen whereas i’m your evening dress you put on at night. you wash me when i’m dirty and then you hang me out to dry. now brick-laying is really not my profession. egyptian architecture’s not my style. and though it seems to be the latest fashion conformity is not my aim. go back to whom you left too soon! he walks so much better in your shoes. i’ll wash away what remains still never gonna play the game. oh, what a splendid play, you’re queen whereas i’m the pawn in your game. in order to win i’m sacrificed without batting an eye. just wait for the snake to shed her skin. i lose myself cause i’m afraid of losing you and hope that fate will pull you on my side. but you’re the one who’s pulling strings and i cannot let my heart sing and swallow all my pride cause my words in your mouth are mumbled all about. again i stumble. anyone please open my eyes cause i am blind. i'm so tired of our disputes from now on I’m gonna turn on mute. i gave what was alive in me till dead i was like maple leafs in canada’s late fall. once and for all, it’s my final call.
