Cheated.
I guess it’s more exciting when we break the rules.
Cheating on our partners, making them look fools.
Do you ever wonder why we\'re in this place?
Snatching secret moments, “Guilty! “ written on your face.
Because deep down none of us are sure.
The value of a moment compared to what we had before.
When we reach out for another’s hand.
When we’re blown along the beach like tiny grains of sand.
We somehow lose direction from the path.
We’re swept along to pay the price in the aftermath.
And everyone’s a victim in this game.
We’re going round in circles, to once more start again.
But deep inside we yearn for something more.
We want to pack a suitcase, taxi at the door.
And those we loved before will take the blame.
Anything at all to absolve us from the shame
We’ll tell the judges what they did to make us sad
It’s harder to explain about the love that we once had.
There’s something new promised for tomorrow.
Will it bring us joy or crumble into sorrow?.
And everybody’s innocent and everybody’s wrong.
We change the tune to emphasise our version of the song
And once the thrill of hurting them subsides.
Will the one you’re with be forever by your side?
Will you live regretting what you lost?
Once you’ve paid the lawyers will you count the cost?.
And will your new love take you for his wife?
Will he love and comfort you in the winter of your life?
Or was that never part of the arrangement?
Will you come to learn of his habitual disengagement?
Will he keep you strictly in your place?
Or will he scan the room for another pretty face?
Will you become lonely and defeated?
Time to roll the dice again.
Now that you have cheated.
