The Game

[Intro, Solo Piano Over Ambient Pads] What’s over is over What’s done is done Don’t forget who you are Or where you come from I won’t be here tomorrow Not for help, not for fun You burned it all—again Now the damage can’t be undone [Piano Sustain to Distorted Guitar Drop] [Chorus, Explosive & Aggressive] So don’t waste my time If you don’t intend to change Go on—spread your lies But you lit the flame Burning bridges is your favorite game Well guess what, I’m done playing safe [Guitar Solo – Chaotic and Raw] [Verse 2, Darker & Heavier Tone] I’ve replaced these stones, again and again Splintered my hands just trying to mend Lined every board with bleeding pride But every nail drove deeper inside Wood turns to ash, bolts start to bend The frame stands tall—but it’s all pretend The base might be strong, but the soul is cracked And the weight of your fire always pulls me back [Chorus, Driving Full Band] So don’t waste my time If you don’t intend to change Go on—spread your lies But you lit the flame Burning bridges is your favorite game Let’s play it out—I’ll burn your name [Guitar Solo, Emotional but Melodic] [Verse 3, Spoken to Screamed Transition] So when the smoke clears and you’re alone Searching the sky or the gravel road Maybe then you’ll finally see What it cost to set fire to me You’ll light that match one final time But this time— I won’t rewind [Bridge / Breakdown, Half-Time Slam] (Heavy guitars, reverb screams) I carried this for far too long Now I’m burning back what you did wrong Watch it fall—watch it fade I’m not the one you’ll try to save [Final Chorus, Screamed and Sung in Layers] So don’t waste my time If you don’t intend to change Go on—spread your lies But you lit the flame Burning bridges is your legacy name You built the fire—now sit in the flame [Outro, Slow Guitar Fadeout & Spoken Line] I’m done rebuilding You can burn alone
