I have grown out of simple games of a heart

I will not sit around waiting for a message

or any indication of your potential love,

My mind is occupied with more than one thought

Darling, you think you are the only one

Who has chosen to play with my soul?

I have had players like you that came for my sanity

I gave them It all, love and its insanity,

but when they left, I was left with my heart in pieces

It didn’t take long for me to understand that love has its seasons

Try not to come for my eternal flame

I will burn everyone who stands on my way,

but I hope I don’t burn myself in my own game

I love to fall in love with a stranger

But the endings are always the same.
