The Game of Life


why you dont care,
i dont know.
sometimes i think
it's just all a show

sitting alone
driftin away
life goes on
another day.

disengaged
out of breath
i dont care
what's it really worth?

if anything
let me know
cause right now
it's just another show

another game
another player
another day
another year

sitting alone
driftin away
life goes on
another day

disengaged
out of breath
i dont care
it's all a bunch of shit

what's it really worth
who cares anyhow
why should i
you sure as hell dont

you just want to go on
with your stereotypical life
i'll stay away
and wait for another day

when you decide to care
when you decide i'm something
worth caring about
worth fighting for or even crying for

maybe it will happen
maybe it wont
i'll remain the same
as this fuckin world changes

i doubt that you see
the truth behind me
cause you're covered in a film
of selfish ambition

you answer how you think i want to hear
your answers, i can no longer bear
i've cared too much
tried too hard

i cant go on like this
swinging from the veins
that cover up your
heart of stone

what's the problem with being personal
and showing you care
it just might make someone's day
better in a million ways

you act one way
then change again
i cant figure you out,
when will it end?

i dont care what you do
go ahead and live your life
i dont give a shit anymore
the clot will cover my heart soon

i'm determined not to hurt anymore
you cant hurt me anymore
when you're ready
you know where i am

go on,
go back to your stereotypical life
you wont talk to me for another year
you wont care until its over

then the show will begin again
because then you'll be alone.
but i've always been alone
sitting in a stereotypical world

i just pick which show i wish to play
and wait for a better one
to come another day
maybe it will, maybe it wont

but tomorrow i'll know
if it's just another show
tomorrow i'll see
the truth behind you and me

maybe it'll be good
maybe it'll be bad
i dont know and i dont care
cause its all just another show

you're just a show
