Text: Tokyo Rose. The Promise In Compromise. 611 Life Lesson.

These games that we play so hard,
They got me feelin' like I lost my special one and only
And there's nothin' left to say (There's nothin' left there's nothin')
You swore that you would always be there for me
But a year has come and gone and still I sit here lonely
It never mattered anyway

First time you played me for a fool
Next time I pay the price
This'll be the last you take a banner
Till you gimme away, gimme away, gimme away

[Chorus:]
There's only so much more that
A boy can take of this
I'm ready, locked, and loaded
Waiting for your fatal kiss tonight
There's gotta be a price to pay when you walk away
You'd never leave, you swore you'd never leave
You swore you'd never leave me all alone

Your lies, they kept me hangin'
Always somethin' I could never find a way to go and cut loose
I never knew I was so bad
So next time, I hope you find a boy
Who'd love to have as much as all the times I had to show you
I'd always be there by your side

First time you played me for a fool
Next time I pay the price
This'll be the last you take a banner
Till you gimme away, gimme away, gimme away

[Chorus]

And as you're dreamin' next to me
I can't but help to think
That you wouldn't love me as when we first met
And even though this is killin' me I had to accept

[Chorus x2]
