Two Controllers, One Player


I must be some type of game cause all I do is get played

It's such a shame I followed my heart but forgot to bring my brain,

 

I poured my heart out,

And served it on a silver platter,

Try to feed you what you've been starved from 

But it didn't even matter,

 

Left me in the dark not knowing what to expect,

I'd hate to interject,

But you've been out here scheming

Doing things I never thought that you would do,

Going behind my back thinking I never had a clue,

 

Forget you too,

Your true colors showed and they lit up,

Bright as can be for everyone to see

How crooked and deceitful you really turned out to be,

 

Don't even care about how I felt or what it did to me

Didn't phase you at all so what's there left for me to say?

You left me in ruins,

Left me broken down in pieces,

Jesus please come down and put me back together,

I can't do it on my own my soul has been to weathered.
