The Wrong Game
What is it that you do to me?
I need to know what this feeling is
Is it love? Or is it lust?
Maybe it's another feeling,
Anger could be
Though what is there to be mad about?
To sit here and think about?
You treat me the same, like nothing ever changed
Maybe it didn’t
Well for you it didn’t
Of course it did for me though
I can only change.
Because you have an ever-strong power over women
And im just another weak girl who fell for your easy games
Never could I comprehend that I would be considered as one
Falling into your game.
You see what you want and you get it
That's the way it is, isn't it?
Even if it took you a little longer with me
You still got me.
You got me and now im here
Everyone told me it was going to be like this
I should have listened but it was fun not to
Of course it was
Though there was no ending where I would be happy
Because I have too many feelings and you have too little.
Maybe it's because you have someone else
Someone else who you are focused on, who you want to be with
And I am happy for you, some little part of me actually is
I want you to be, and so even though it kills me a little,
I still am for you.
People will say im stupid, that they knew it
There’s no point in feeling the way I do because your not worth it
I'm not saying that you are,
I know your not
But im still here, still not leaving, still stuck on the “what if”
Which seems to be my favourite thing to think about.
What if you came into my room and told me you're done with her because you want to be with me?
What if you told me how you have loved me since you met me?
What if you said how you only want to be with me?
What if your brain is consumed with the thought of me and every emotion I bring out of it?
What if you loved me too.
Where would we go then?
Things with us have no way to end well
Would you stare at another across the room?
Would you text someone else through the night?
Would you hold another as if you were each others?
I would be the one caught staring.
The saying would stand true
How it never works
I would have to defend you to everyone even though I know, again,
They were right.
You have a wandering eye
I know because I have been the thing it looks at
Stares at as you move across the room
Draws your attention, causing jealousy of a person
A person that is forbidden.
So you stare and watch
As I feel your eyes and guide them all through my night
The eyes may move for a moment
Though they always come back
Focused, on something they can only see
Never touch.
I bathe in the feeling of being the one that is looked at
Never wanting the eyes to turn away
A sense that is forever craved
But not when I know,
I would be on the other side this time.
So now im back
In a loop where I sit in my room and stare at the ceiling wondering if you are doing the same
If you are as trapped in the thought of me as much as I am consumed with the thought of you
It won’t benefit me if you are
In fact it could make it worse
I shouldn’t know what you are thinking
Only envy and pain would be brought.
I have too much to think about what that could truly mean
Where we would go from there
Though there's no point in spiraling about it
An idea that could never come to fruition
If you loved me too.
Would you treat me the same way you treated the others?
Would you care for me any more?
Would I get any ounce of treatment different because maybe I am the one this time?
No strength in my own pain.
But then again im back to where I was
Everyone is always the one with you
And im here watching you change your mind
Go in and out as if they mean nothing to you
As if I mean nothing to you.
So maybe we are better off as friends
As we are now
Because I could be an important person in your life still
Just not the one I want to be.
