Just experimenting with V6 but it kind of worked pretty well! :) ___________________________________________________ [Female] What a curious little town, where every window has a pair of eyes. I came for one small thing, yet somehow everyone knows my name. [Male] How tiresome. Not tiresome, madam. Interesting. A stranger arrives without a past, asks no questions, trusts no one and expects no one to notice. [Female] You always talk as if you know me, as if you've read my story through. But every page I tore away before the ink was dry for you. You see a smile and call it weakness, you hear a lie and call it fear. But if you think you've caught me, my dear, I'm not even here. [Male] You always lie as if you want me to, as though the truth would spoil the game. You hide a spark beneath your laughter, then swear you never knew the flame. You move a piece and wait for triumph, you set a trap and call it art. But if you think you've fooled me, my dear, you've only shown your heart. [Female] You think you know me? [Male] I think you want me to think I don't. [Female] Perhaps I came here just to fool you. [Male] Perhaps I was waiting just for you. [Female] You speak too boldly. [Male] You listen too closely. [Female] You make assumptions. [Male] You make them too. [Female] And what makes you so certain you're right? [Male] Nothing, except you're still here. [Female] I could leave this very moment. [Male] But you won't. [Female] I could turn and disappear. [Male] But you won't. [Female] And if I run? [Male] I'll run faster. [Female] And if I win? [Male] I'll applaud. [Female] And if I lose? [Male] You won't. [Female] Insolent! [Male] Careful. [Female] Why? [Male] You are already three steps behind. [Female] Perhaps I should walk away, before this game becomes something more. [Male] Perhaps I should let you go, before I learn what I already know. [Female] You see too much. [Male] You hide too beautifully. [Female] And yet I stay. [Male] And yet I wait. [Female] Perhaps the game was never victory. [Male] Perhaps it was finding someone worth losing to. [Female] You always think you're three steps ahead. [Male] You always think I'm three steps behind. [Female] Perhaps you're only chasing shadows. [Male] Perhaps you're only changing your mind. [Male] Three steps! Three steps! Ahead! [Female] Ahead! [Both] We circle the fire, we sharpen the blade, each waiting for the other to make a mistake! [Male] You are impossible! And you are dangerous! [Female] You are conceited! [Male] You are irresistible! [Female] You are a fool! [Male] You are a genius! Then tell me, who is fooling who? [Female] You thought you were three steps ahead! [Male] I thought you were three steps behind! [Female] But darling [Male] Yes? [Female] Don't call me darling. [Male] Then what shall I call you? [Female] Someone who beat you. [Male] Impossible! [Female] Count again. [Male] One! Two! [Female] Three! [Male] Three! [Female] Four! [Both] Three steps ahead, yet side by side! Three steps ahead, with nowhere left to hide! [Male] Two reckless hearts, one dangerous game and neither will surrender, neither will name the winner tonight! [Male] Perhaps I was waiting just for you. [Female] Perhaps I came here just to fool you. [Both] And perhaps, for once, we don't need to win! [Both – Final Crescendo] THREE STEPS AHEAD!
