I've been thinking that lately You've been being far too honest; You waste my time away And you know it; you always show it, Nagging me for hours to drive me out And I've been thinking for months just dreaming That for once you'll get it; We'll set the record straight But this time, it seems to be another flaw in my mind; I'll get it done in time Running on empty one too many times, I haven't had a decent sleep in nights Is it in my head? Nothing was ever said to give it all away Playing your game of charades The secret to your mind means I'll come back in time Playing your game of charades The secret to your mind means I'll come back in time Charades Charades I'm getting tired, lacking motivation, I deny frustration; I can't get out Always reminding me of dedication, Procrastination is how I pout Constant aggression is a killer lifestyle; My mind just runs wild when you're around Take it or leave it, I am out the door now and taking my vow; I'm homeward bound Running on empty for the very last time, I haven't had a decent sleep in nights It appeared to be, she blamed me Can't you take the blame about your game of charades? Playing your game of charades The secret to your mind means I'll go back in time Playing your game of charades The secret to your mind means I'll go back in time Charades Inside lies a chance to stay, you pushed away And I find you're waiting, dying You're lying, I'm trying, don't let me go
