Life is a game
At the end you're still going to get the blame
It doesn't matter if you want to play
You'll still get tricked into saying okay
People do things
Which bind them in return with strings
When they finally break through, their heart gets hit with regret
No wonder why they rather forget
We trust people without thinking
It's so careless that we end up fleeing
We hope our running will make us free
When we know at the end, we'll end up at that same tree
We keep going back
Hoping we're ready for the next attack
We lookout for the unknown enemy
When they're standing right there acting friendly
As soon as we turn around
They get ready for a rebound
Falling down, shattered into pieces
We thought we had put up all the braces
Swallowed into a hole of darkness
Back into the castle of mistress
When will we escape?
From our own mistakes?
Trust isn't something to give
But something to earn
It isn't a piece of candy
Given to anyone who makes us happy
We get trapped in our own puzzles
Built from our own troubles
We blame others for our misdeeds
Like they're the ones who plant our seeds
Life is a game
At the end you're still going to get the blame
It doesn't matter if you want to play
You'll still get tricked into saying okay
Phony smiles and showering compliments
That's exactly how they play
They use you for their accomplishments
All you need to say is okay
To get into their game of lies
As soon as they get their prize
They'll leave you without a goodbye
Leaving you all alone to die
