Pawns & Pieces Lyrics
I guess I should have tried a little bit harder
Before I went and let my anchor down
Cause here I am stranded in open water
And all my luck is running out
I never wanted this darling
But sometimes the truth is what you pay
I won’t play this tired game, I am not some lonely pawn
Who’ll partake in the defense of yet another hopeless cause
I won’t wait no longer, I won’t wait no longer
For something that’s just as good as gone
And for so long I tried to make amends
With every little moral rule, you broke inside my level head
And on a checkerboard stage, you’ll come on over
Bring your lust, we’ll talk it over
And do a dance of pawns and pieces every time
I never wanted this darling
But sometimes the truth is what you pay
I won’t play this tired game, I am not some lonely pawn
Who’ll partake in the defense of yet another hopeless cause
I won’t wait no longer, I won’t wait no longer
For something that’s just as good as gone
Before I went and let my anchor down
Cause here I am stranded in open water
And all my luck is running out
But sometimes the truth is what you pay
Who’ll partake in the defense of yet another hopeless cause
I won’t wait no longer, I won’t wait no longer
For something that’s just as good as gone
With every little moral rule, you broke inside my level head
And on a checkerboard stage, you’ll come on over
Bring your lust, we’ll talk it over
And do a dance of pawns and pieces every time
But sometimes the truth is what you pay
Who’ll partake in the defense of yet another hopeless cause
I won’t wait no longer, I won’t wait no longer
For something that’s just as good as gone
