Pawn

I won't be your pawn
In this intricate game you play
Take all that we are
And just throw it all away
Because you're bringin' me down
When all I want is you near to me
If you don't need me around
Then why are you still a part of me
I know we're runnin' aground
I gotta let go of this fantasy
But when the dust settles down
I hope you still have a place for me

You break my heart
But I'm not gettin' over you
Time's a helping hand
But there's only so much it can do
And when you're so far away
I can't recall why you're bad for me
There must be some other way
My mind is still playin' tricks on me
I'm just a pawn in your game
You know you've taken control of me
But I'm not runnin' away
I need you more than I need to breathe

I know I'm your pawn
But that doesn't change how I feel
I can play along
'Til you realize that this is real
Yeah you just run me around
When all I want if you near to me
It feels so desperate but how
Can I get you to be true to me
I must be losin' my mind
This kind of thing should come easily
I may be wastin' my time
But I hope you still find your way to me

You break my heart
But I'm not gettin' over you
Time's a helping hand
But there's only so much it can do
And when you're so far away
I can't recall why you're bad for me
There must be some other way
My mind is still playin' tricks on me
I'm just a pawn in your game
You know you've taken control of me
But I'm not runnin' away
I need you more than I need to breathe

I know that it's wrong
I'll still be your pawn
I know that it's wrong
I'll still be your pawn
I know that it's wrong
I'll still be your pawn
I know that it's wrong
I'll still be your pawn
I know that it's wrong
I'll still be your pawn
