Hate the Player, Not the Game

I guess this is just the way it goes
The deck is stacked against me so I fold

We'll manifest our destiny
I want you here right next to me
I want to feel your skin on mine
No sense of false security
I want to give you all that I can be
Don't you worry baby, I'll never leave you behind
Don't you turn off the light

Tuck me into bed at night
Tell me a story, make it all alright

Lay down if you're feeling broken
Or get up if you've finally woken from your sleep tonight
Where your dreams ignite
Leave the words unspoken
Get it off your chest, you'll know then
That it's all alright to watch your dreams ignite

Watch your dreams slowly start to ignite
Exploding into one million little lights
We can't freeze time 'cus it isn't right
We're staring down the clock until we go blind

Don't you worry baby, I'll never leave you behind
Don't you turn your back on mine
Tuck me into bed at night
Tell me a story, make it all alright

You said that you didn't want to play this game
Took all we had and washed it down the drain
You said to hate the player, not the game
But I know that they're one in the same

It's just the way it goes
The deck is stacked against me, so I fold

Lay down if you're feeling broken
Or get up if you've finally woken from your sleep tonight
Where your dreams ignite
Leave the words unspoken
Get it off your chest, you'll know then
That it's all alright to watch your dreams ignite
