lyrics

A game is nothing more than a series of individual situations
A game is nothing more than a series of individual confronations
 
So I hope that you don't flake out
Because you're gonna lose every once in a while
But not as much as you might lose otherwise
 
You're always in control
But it's slipping up
It's gonna catch up with you.
 
It might not hurt to let it go
Then again, it might, but you're never gonna know.
 
So I hope that you don't flake out
When you lose every once in a while
We can can crouch down in the weeds
Come up around the back way
Where nobody else is gonna go
 
You're running out of time to play the game you love.
 
Hey, what if you were to say
A little more
A little more than you said last time
We might be able to get along
If you hung around once in a while.
 
Still I hope that you don't flake out
Cause you're gonna win every once in a while
And we can crouch down in the weeds
Come up around the  back way
Where nobody else is gonna go
 
You're running out of time to play the game you love
