The Player & the Fool

Tears on this pillow, drowned in my sorrow
Can't find the strength to face tomorrow

We built a love (a love)
Like castles in the sand, now washed away
Your sweet promises turned into games we play
Was I just a pawn, for you to betray?

We had it all (all)
But now you're gone and it's hard to breathe
You played the game, left me in defeat
Was it all lies, or did you mean to deceive?

You were the player, and I was the fool
Thought we were endless, but I broke the rule
Now, I'm alone (alone)
Echoes of your voice, they haunt my mind
Staring at the pictures, trying to rewind
How did love turn so unkind? (unkind)

Broken hearts and shattered dreams
Playing your part in lover's schemes

With every tear (tear)
Each memory's a shard, cutting deep
Tossing and turning, haunted in my sleep
Your touch lingers, a ghost I can't keep

You tore me down
Left me in this emptiness, without a sound

Now all I see (I see)
Are promises broken, words left unsaid
A heart full of longing, a soul left for dead
Was it love or a game you played in my head?

Days turn to nights
Piece that remains, tho the endless fight
