You could have been my last hope
Maybe you could have been, nothing at all
And now you’re the truth from which I hide
I’d rather stay by your side
If only I knew that I could fail again, with you
The other one, a lonely game
Within my mind
The other one, a lovely play
Within my brain
You could have been my worst dream
Maybe you could have been
Between a cup & a wreck
My heart is stronger than my thoughts
I want to tell you something you don’t wanna know …
The other one, a lovely game
Within my brain
You’re going to die & blow my mind
Without any pain
And now you’re the past that will not last, that won’t come back
I would not stay by your side …
‘cause now I know it wouldn’t be wrong to fail again, trying to stay with you …
The other one, a lonely game …
