The Anticipation of Pain

The anticipation of pain
Is keeping us down
We're making the same mistakes again
It's really keeping us down
We're all so afraid of death
But we hide it away
And there won't be a last breath
Really worth its name

You say love's just a game
And you explain the rules so well
But in my life are no games
As far as I can tell
And if love's not a game
Then what are we playing for?
And if love's just a game
Then what are we crying for?

It's so wrong
It's so wrong

The anticipation of pain
Is keeping you down, down, down
You're making the same mistakes again
It's really keeping you down
Maybe love's just a game
And you explain the rules so well
But in my life are no games
As far as I can tell
And if love's not a game
Then what is she playing for?
You chase her away
She only keeps coming back for more

The anticipation of pain
Is keeping you down
You're down on your knees again
It's time to get up
And if love's just a game
Then we should play to win
'Cause everything else's just a shame
And it's so wrong
But now it's time
Now it's time to get up
