The Game

When you said we bled black and gold
I thought the football games would make us close
I'd get giddy when you picked me up
'cause you can't fall asleep inside the car I thought you loved
I saw through the smoke 'cause I was just a kid
I couldn't understand it wasn't anything I did
The only thing that's different is you would never listen
But maybe you can listen to me now

Oh, didn't understand 'til I was grown
Eighteen, found therapy
I played around 'til I figured out
I was the one you put the blame on
Except when you put the game on

Mmm

You float all alone in the airport
I would say a goodnight to your ghost 'cause I was sure
You'd fly away
But what do you say?
Can you touch down for a moment and meet me halfway?
I saw through the smoke 'cause I was just a kid
I couldn't understand it wasn't anything I did
The only thing that's different is you would never listen
But maybe you can listen to me now

Oh, didn't understand 'til I was grown
Eighteen, found therapy
I played around 'til I figured out
I was the one you put the blame on
Except when you put the game on

I saw through the smoke 'cause I was just a kid
I couldn't understand it wasn't anything I did
The only thing that's different is you would never listen
But maybe you can listen to me now
I really hope you're learning how

Oh, didn't understand 'til I was grown
Eighteen, found therapy
I played around, and finally figured out
I was the one you put the blame on
Except when we put the game on
Mmm
Ooh
