Your Game
Challenge you if I dare
I seize on this temptation
You're playing on jealousy
Trying to out do the last manoeuvre
Emotions running hot and I have realised
That I haven't loved you for a very long time
But it's OK, I'll play along
I'll pretend like you've hurt me
I'm laughing on the inside
It's so childish
If only it were as easy
As simply pressing 'Delete'
And you'd be gone forever
