The Game

Why'd the tables have turned?

Would you still call my name as I took the wrong turn?

Would the fire still burn?

When do we learn how to play?

(Learn how to play)

What would it take to wash away all the shame?

One more round of the same

And if we'd play by the rules

Would you lie awake at night?

Do you still wonder why we turned out to be fools?

And what, then, if wrong would have been right?

(Wrong had been right)

Would you be able to resist the call of the wild

And rekindle the fire?

I don't know whether

We're inside or out

Outside or in on the game

It doesn't matter

Because inside or out

Outside or in, all the same

I'm there in the fray, in the light

To get in the white of your eyes

Like a cat smellin' mice

When you're rolling the dice

Much like your fistful of sand

It's so very hard to hold on to the future we planned

We were dealt the wrong hand

I don't know whether

We're inside or out

Outside or in on the game

It doesn't matter

Because inside or out

Outside or in, all the same

Why'd the tables have turned?

Would you still call my name as I took the wrong turn?

Would the fire still burn?

I don't know whether

We're inside or out

Outside or in on the game

It doesn't matter

Because inside or out

Outside or in, all the same

I don't know whether

We're inside or out

Outside or in on the game

It doesn't matter

Because inside or out

Outside or in, all the same

I don't know whether

We're inside or out

Outside or in on the game

It doesn't matter

Oh, we're inside or out

Outside or in, all the same
