Analysis of I'm A Game

Jhana Bissonnette 1991 (Hawaii)



Will you just talked to me
Because I'm feeling like hell
Will you just listen to me?
You only care about yourself

Why did you try to get me?
When you knew all along
You didn't want me
Why did you say you love me?
When you knew it wouldn't last
Why did you fool my heart?
Like it's a game
I'm feeling like such a joke
Because I've always known
I'm a game
