I chose to play your mind games

But, since we’re in this together
You can push my buttons,
Cheat as you wish,
Orchestrate foul play,
And rig and control me.

But, since we’re in this together
You can attack me with combos
Affordable to lose,
Be the killjoy of our team,
And enjoy the action while
You shed your true colors.

But, since we’re in this together
I would beg to differ.
I would change the rules.
I would battle for the throne with one life left
To claim the prize of independence.

But, since we’re in this together
I am going to put my foot down,
Because you forced my hand.
I am going to complete the final stage,
And break the barriers confining us inside,
And forge a boundary between you and I,
Because we’re not on the same level.
I am looking in the eyes of my enemy, so
I am going to pull the plug,
And take YOU down with ME in this relationship
since we’re in this together.
