lyrics

Tell me what's the issue
You don't have to lie
There's something goin on
There's something goin down
Tell me what's the problem
Can we compromise?
I see it in your features
I see it in you eyes

It's those mind games
You're playing with me
Waiting for reactions
What'll it be?
It's those mind games
You're trying to play
But I don't think you're ready
For what I have to say

You always have a bone
To pick with me
Every little thing I do
Offends you in some way
Not one day passes you by
When I'm not in your watchful eye

It's those mind games
You're playing with me
Waiting for reactions
What'll it be?
It's those mind games
You're trying to play
But I don't think you're ready
For what I have to say

Just when I thought
That it was all ok
Looks like I messed up
Now there's hell to pay
Not one day passes you by
When I'm not in your watchful eye

It's those mind games
You're playing with me
Waiting for reactions
What'll it be?
It's those mind games
You're trying to play
But I don't think you're ready
For what I have to say

Seems to me
As time passes by
Those friendly smiles
Become a disguise
The one's who are against you
Follow you closely
Watch your every move
Step on you when you fall
It sure is no surprise
I couldn't put my trust in you
Another fake connection
Another pack of lies
Maybe I'm the one
To challenge you instead
Let the games begin, my friend
Let the games begin...

Here we go again
I keep on sliding down
The slippery slopes with you

(Instrumental)

It seems to be
A war within our minds
A race against time
Looks like I'm late again

The time has come
The pressures on
What are you going to do
Make your move

Here we go again
You keep on rearranging the facts
From the truth
Here we go again
Just take the blame
And move along
The problem isn't me
It's you...

No matter what you do about this
No matter what you say about me
No matter whatever makes you happy
I still remain...

I won't play the game
No I won't
No I won't
I wont play the game
No I won't
You know I won't
I won't play the game
