I was sitting cut, spitting blood With my pride collapsed Sickened to the gut, lit one up Let my mind relax I once thought that I could walk away But I was fitted up, slid 'n' shut You knew I'd react I know I'll never get the last laugh Only the blame And I should never let my dark heart Blacken my name But I'm addicted to the hard part of Playing the game And never settle for a draw But you're forever levelling the score Doubled up and clawing the floor As the comedown came Shivering like a who*e turning tricks In the London rain I once thought that I could walk away Never should have fought in your war In that dumbed down state I know I'll never get the last laugh Only the blame And I should never let my dark heart Blacken my name But I'm addicted to the hard part of Playing the game And never settle for a draw But you're forever levelling the score Still living with the curse We've a hell of a history I'm driven by a thirst For your delicate twist For bringing out my worst You're the first on my list You got me 'cause you knew I wouldn't run I know I'll never get the last laugh Only the shame That I should ever let my dark heart Blacken my name But I'm addicted to the hard part of Playing the game And never settle for a draw But you're forever levelling the score
