Les Jeux Sont Faits - Fredrika Stahl

The game is over

I lost this round

I thought I could win more

Than I actually found

Was it worth a try

No I wouldn't say

The price was too high

For someone like me to pay

But what's the use

Of regretting what's done

Wouldn't I do it again

If another chance would come

I've become so bitter

Over what's supposed to be sweet

And still I'm eager

To be offered another treat

I've thought if through and I've come to a conclusion

That I tend to put aside to end up with confusion

I'm trying to save myself from superfluous pain

With the trade-off of losing any possible gain

I'm watching every step building up a thick shield

Searching my way out of a condemned mind field mind field

The game is over

And I've lost my bet

Now all I can play with

Is a dull empty threat

But what is it worth

If it's against your will

How would I know

If you really care for me still

I've thought if through and I've come to a conclusion

That I tend to put aside to end up with confusion

I'm trying to save myself from superfluous pain

With the trade-off of losing any possible gain

I'm watching every step building up a thick shield

Searching my way out of a condemned mind field mind field
