VERSES 1:
I lie awake, once again
Might as well not sleep when it’s all said & done

You made your case, without a sound
You don’t need me, say it, don’t keep me around

PRE-CHORUS:
So how do I, decide to try
To change your mind, & make you stay?

I wish I knew the reason why,
You seem to play this evil game

CHORUS 1:
My mind, doesn’t have the time to play it
I’ve tried before, it never ends the way I want it to

VERSES 2:
I’m twice my age, in what I know
Got that way from all things you put me through

My heart pretends, not to know why
Why you stop from making this all worth your time

PRE-CHORUS:
So how do I, decide to try
To change your mind, & make you stay?
I should’ve tried, to end the lie
This game that I, have got to say

CHORUS 2:
My mind, doesn’t have the time to play it
I’ve tried before, it never ends the way I want it

I’ll never know just why it is I try so hard for
How do I get things back the way, they used to be before

BRIDGE:
It’s all I think about,
The way I gave you me
I should have waited out
But I really couldn’t see
Just how you were inside
The way you fooled around
Now I know you lied & threw
All my love on the ground

SOLO

CHORUS 2:
My mind, doesn’t have the time to play it
I’ve tried before, it never ends the way I want it

I’ll never know just why it is I try so hard for
How do I get things back the way, they used to be before
