you say it hurts too much to talk but then it pains you to leave
i cant win i cant win
you say you need me like the air but when i'm there you cant breath
i cant win i cant win
you say you don't know why i treat you so good when i'm mean
i cant win i can win

this game called love
it's changing us
we're not the same
to win this game you've got to be heartless

and isn't that ironic
we're practically robotic
tryin to claim that we know love
like that guy from high school that blew up and got famous
we're all just tryin to shine while we run around aimless
like we know something's coming and we're tryin to be patient
some fall by the wayside, got sick of the waiting
im a hopeless optimistic and i know love will change us
and if it does for the better i van only be grateful
cause i tried right....


even if i couldn't win

I don't personally agree with this line

"to win this game you've got to be heartless"

but it's necessary in the context of your piece. Great drop! Love is a battlefield..

hurtless yes to win you must hurtless I actually got the rythmn of this from the beginning each letter blending into the next stanza word frame phrase; harmony no blame, from the place it is written, cause damn love often leaves feeling smitten. great read just needed to see it to understand the now in my own situation.
