I used to be just like you I'd sit here everyday Mock suicide, your wounded pride Kept getting in the way You know that I can't tell you You know I'd never lie Your enemies are ill at ease The moon is in their sky Alright Can anybody tell me The difference right or wrong Put games aside the second time This joker's played too long Don't say I didn't warn you Don't say I wasn't fair With open eyes, to your surprise You'll find I wasn't there And you say you could never read me That cards never play in my eyes But the pieces are moving, the game's an illusion
And the hand you've been dealt is mine And you say you could never read me That cards never play in my eyes But the pieces are moving, the game's an illusion And the hand you've been dealt is mine Destiny's answer to everyone else Seems empty as far as you've gone Expect the surprises, don't ever ask why You're facing this world on your own Promises broken and promises made The sooner you know, you can try The best you can hope for is knowing someday All winners and losers must die
