You say 

it's solid poetry

It's what you want to see

Some sensuality



When you cry, 

I just can't prove you wrong

Hell I just play along

I guess it turns you on...



The games we play

The shows we give

The hearts we break

We live through this

the games we play



(oh) Do right, 

it's getting critical

Are we too cynical

Could use a miracle...



The games we play

The shows we give

My heart you break

I live through this...

the games we play



The games we play

The rules we make

Like secret codes, 

we can't escape

The games we play...

– The games we play...



You say

there really is no doubt

We just can't do without...



(solo chorus)

– The games we play 

– The games we play...



The games we play

The shows we give

The hearts we break

We live through this

The games we play 



The games we play

The rules we bend

With lovers lust, we will defend

The games we play...



You say 

it's solid poetry
