[Verse 1]
I’ve been in love, I’ve been insane
Took the pleasure shook the pain
I’ve been mellow was a morning rain
Embrace the love to hurricane
A [?] caution to the wind
Low in dose I’ve been the devil’s friend
I’ve danced the pains of a [?]
I’d do it all again

[Chorus]
I played the game
And I paid the price
Watch true love turn cold as ice
I’ve been down nothing left inside
I played the game
And paid the price
I played the game
And paid the price
Been called some names
Burn through an ice
You came close to the truth
There once or twice
I played the game
And paid the price
[Verse 2]
Tried harder do things our own way
Saying what I mean
Meaning what I say
So don’t go standing in my way
I wanna bow down when I pray

[Chorus]
I played the game
And I paid the price
Watch true love turn cold as ice
I’ve been down nothing left inside
I played the game
You’ll pay the price
I played the game
And paid the price
Been called some names
Burn through an ice
You came close to the truth
There once or twice
I played the game
And paid the price

You came close to the truth
There once or twice
Played the game
You’ll pay the price
