(Verse 1)
I’m standing here shouting into the air
Wondering if you were ever really there.
I count the seconds, I watch the phone
Feeling crowded but completely alone.
I poured my ocean into your cup
But you never asked me to fill it up.
Now I’m reading the silence, reading the signs
Reading between the blurred lines.
(Chorus)
Don't look for the ones who don't care about you
Don't chase the shadow that falls right through.
Don't search for the people who don't need you
To do what they do, to get where they’re going to.
Stop trying to get their attention
When they think you're not worth a mention.
Stop loving someone who doesn't feel the same
It’s time to resign yourself from the useless game.
(Verse 2)
I gave you the lead role in my play
But you were just looking for a getaway.
It’s a hard pill to swallow, a bitter taste
To think of the emotion that went to waste.
I’m over-analyzing every glance
Trying to find a rhythm in a broken dance.
But the music stopped a long time ago
And I’m the last one on the floor, moving slow.
(Bridge)
My head knows the truth, it screams it loud
"Walk away now, get out of the cloud."
But my heart is a rebel, it refuses to learn
It stays in the fire just to feel the burn.
Why is it hardest to say goodbye
When the one you love won't even try?
(Guitar Solo)
(Sad, Melancholic, amd Drifting)
(Chorus)
So don't look for the ones who don't care about you
Don't chase the shadow that falls right through.
Don't search for the people who don't need you
To do what they do.
Stop trying to get their attention
When they think you're not worth a mention.
Stop loving someone who doesn't feel the same
Resign yourself... just resign yourself...
From the useless game.
(Outro)
Game over.
I’m setting down the pieces.
I’m folding the hand.
No more searching.
No more games.
