Play the Game

I only have myself to blame
Never could I lose if I didn't choose to play the game
Part of me that's gone for good
The fire of desire doesn't burn like I hoped it would

Hard to keep the flame from going out
It's hard for us to know what it's all about
It's hard to have perspective with no heavenly directive
I know

Letting go is something you learn
No matter who you are, we all seem to get a turn
More and more is never enough
I don't know where I'd go if the going ever got tough

Hard to keep the flame from going out
Hard for me to know what it's all about
Hard to have perspective with no heavenly directive
I know
