Checkmate
Thinking back to the time we had
Didn't realise you treated me bad
Kept me waiting for your love
How did I miss that that was so messed up
Told me you didn't have the time
So I just spent all of mine
Waiting for your love (God!)
That's just so fucking messed up
(But now you're gone)
You don't wanna call me
anymore
(What have I done)
Should I call you, text you, just ignore
(Treated me wrong)
So I'm gonna look down to the board
Want to take my next move on
But if life would be chess
I'd be checkmate
It is such a mess
Don't know how to escape
Surrounded by traps
Have to sit still until I accept
That I'm checkmate
If life would be chess
I'd be checkmate
It's hard to confess
But the truth must be said
This game is hopeless
Have to sit here and just accept
That I'm checkmate
We were never more than friends
I always had to pretend
Like I didn't fall in love
Guess that's why things got so messed up
(But now you're gone)
You don't wanna call me anymore
(What have I done)
Should I call you, text you, just ignore
(Treated me wrong)
So I'm gonna look down to the board
Want to take my next move on
But if life would be chess
I'd be checkmate
It is such a mess
Don't know how to escape
Surrounded by traps
Have to sit still until I accept
That I'm checkmate
If life would be chess
I'd be checkmate
It's hard to confess
But the truth must be said
This game is hopeless
Have to sit here and just accept
That I'm checkmate
(...)
So I stand up
Put my sleeves up
Accept failure
Take the board back
Start new games and
Start to play and
I know this time I'm not loosing
Life would be chess
I'd be checkmate
It is such a mess don't how escape (don't know escape)
Surrounded by traps
Have to sit still until I accept (don't know to, don't know how to)
That I'm checkmate
If life would be chess
I'd be checkmate
It's hard to confess
But the truth must be said
This game is hopeless (I'm hopeless)
Have to sit here and just accept
That I'm checkmate
Didn't realise you treated me bad
Kept me waiting for your love
How did I miss that that was so messed up
Told me you didn't have the time
So I just spent all of mine
Waiting for your love (God!)
That's just so fucking messed up
(But now you're gone)
You don't wanna call me
anymore
(What have I done)
Should I call you, text you, just ignore
(Treated me wrong)
So I'm gonna look down to the board
Want to take my next move on
But if life would be chess
I'd be checkmate
It is such a mess
Don't know how to escape
Surrounded by traps
Have to sit still until I accept
That I'm checkmate
If life would be chess
I'd be checkmate
It's hard to confess
But the truth must be said
This game is hopeless
Have to sit here and just accept
That I'm checkmate
We were never more than friends

This game is hopeless (I'm hopeless)
Have to sit here and just accept
That I'm checkmate
