Array ( [sid] => 126656 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => the game [time] => 2006-10-07 13:10:04 [hometext] => [bodytext] => i suppose you're right,
i've done nothing at all,
but what more can i do?
what can you expect from me
that i've yet to see through?

i know it's there,
i know too well,
that my actions will not prove,
but tell me please what would be right,
for me to make the move?

i think it so, but you will find
i cannot bring myself to this,
you are not mine and i'll not try
to give in to your kiss.

i suppose that i've done nothing
cuz i cannot bring to mind
a single time that i've said more
than what's buried deep inside.

and i've not given all to you
in ways that can't be told,
and i've not let the moment stay
when you are there to hold.

and i've not said i love you
lest i say it all in vain,
and i've not taken back my heart
from where it too long has remained.

and i've not put you down to take
from myself that blame,
and i've not been much more to you
than token in your game.

and words that are said are nothing much more
than the words you want to hear,
and i've never been the kind to talk
so you can't ever hear.

and i've always kept the lonliness
to myself and watch you go,
and the anger that contains itself,
you'd think you'd be the first to know.

but i've never taken that which hurts
and given it to you,
for fear that it will hurt you more,
something i could never do.

and i can't say i've ever been
so eager to let go,
and i won't say that time has made
this awful feeling grow.

so i'm left to just do nothing
cuz its ne'er been up to me,
and i've never been the one to know
how that's something you can't see.

i hold on to this image
of once was and what could be,
and there's somethin bout the way you are
that won't let go of me.

but secrets and lies
they'll be til the end,
i've said this once before
and i'll say it once again:

secrets don't make friends
and lies will only buy you time,
so i've come to realize once again
that what we had was only mine.

i'm "content with doing nothing"
but you know that isn't true,
there is a time and place for us,
but it's always been up to you.

you've done nothing
but i'll take the blame
cuz there's nothing you can do.
it's all a game to you it seems

and i'm the part of it you're gonna lose.
