Did I wait too long It made me somber, wondering onward Stronger, on and on But I'm still awake You haven't killed me I am willing to persevere another day
[Chorus: 2X] You can run away But you can't escape All these wicked games
[Repeat: 2X] You're impossible like ignoring the habit of breathing I'm expendable to you completed then superseded
I insist it ends My circumstances, burned my chances The answers want it that way But I'm still awake I have opponents I've got moments to own that know my way
[Chorus: 2X]
But it still exists and it's still there You can't escape these wicked games
Go through your pain and struggle but maintain the knowing Of what'll come to you showing, it's all right There's plenty around to drown you Pronounciate found to all that surround you
Give them all flight Running away is a stain In the mud a brain stem with a plug When you get there you don't know why you came
You end up going where your knowing Is showing in different form But inside you feel the same There's always someone else to blame
Now this was a long, long time ago When music was loved on the radio Before my birth, I'm not that old Bands didn't have to pay the radio to be sold
I'm told, it was quite a day To have a station have a dj Not have a play list of what he'd play Or a PD wanting it their way
Just a love for tunes and comparison Now we just compare embarrassment It's such a scare this carelessness It's not awareness, it's harassment
Cherish this choice that we have Not to listen if it gets bad Not to listen if it's add Don't have to ***** and kick and get sad
That it takes ten days of supervision For you to find a good song to listen I got mine new to tradition Let's just break this new tradition
Play the game, play the game Place your blame on a taste of fame Play the same way, a faceless name would play the game Play the game
