Game Theory

Friday evening

I nurse this empty feeling

You asked if we could stop talking

But you still tried to call me

Should I switch the track of the trolley, it’s a–

Lose-lose, I’m sorry, darling

I’ve been setting up a game board

I’m drawing a line

This boundary divides us so please pick a side

We’re both losing

It’s confusing

I’ve been setting up the game board

I’m rolling the dice

We draw an open hand I recoil and cry

We’re both losing

It’s been messing with my mind and I wanna give up

It’s a game theory problem called falling out of love

It’s a no-win, it’s a zugzwang

You email me saying you hate me

I am an Icarus to loss aversion

I’ve been setting up a game board

I’m drawing a line

This boundary divides us so please pick a side

We’re both losing

It’s confusing

I’ve been setting up the game board

I’m rolling the dice

We draw an open hand I recoil and cry

We’re both losing

It’s been messing with my mind and I wanna give up

It’s a game theory problem called falling out of love
