Steven's Game

Everything he did had no meaning
 The answer was black and white
 He sat there wondering if things would get better in a while
 Sitting on his own
 Penning down his thoughts
 A song is stuck in his head
 Some inspiration arises when he remembers what she said
 "No I promise I won't leave
 But I just can't guarantee
 That I'll stay
 For you
 For life"
 Crying on his shoulder day and night
 She comes to him for advice
 The tears soak up over time
 Weeping about the same old guy
 Realizing his place within her life
 Mistaking him for a friend
 An anchor pulls down on his heart when he remembers the end
 "No I promise I won't leave
 But I just can't guarantee
 That I'll stay
 For you
 For life"
 "No I promise I won't leave
 But I just can't guarantee
 That I'll stay
 For you
 For life"
 ♪
 He doesn't understand
 All the white lies
 As the truth
 Behind her eyes
 Hurting and confused
 Watch him run away
 He said "I don't know what's here
 It's hard to see at night"
 There he sees the light
 An escape route back home
 ♪
 Now she's running out into the night
 I'll follow her to something better than me
 I wish I had it better than this old life
 Something's got a hold
 It's time to let her be
 "No I promise I won't leave
 But I just can't guarantee
 That I'll stay
 For you
 For life"
 "No I promise I won't leave
 But I just can't guarantee
 That I'll stay
 For you
 For life"
