lyrics

Aurora:

If I won the game,
Why am I so empty?
I just can not find
if I had crossed a line.

When you win the game,
always remember.
Nobody really wins
Just tuck away the sins.

Is it me?
Or is this just how I see?
There are things I can’t control
if he’s fine, well I don’t know.

Can it be?
All The words I never said.
Now His life was left unread,
will it all come back to me?

And I play again
I lose my only friends.
Trying to stay the same,
but I will win the game.

Will this ever change?
The world’s conditioning?
Nobody’s listening.
Is it your fault or mine?

Is it me?
Is it just the air I breathe?
There are things I don’t control,
if he’s gone, I'll let it go.

Is that me?
I don’t choose what I believe.
Some things I will never share,
now he won't know that I do care.

I won the game
I gave what I’ve gotten.
My heart's feeling rotten
and now I’m the one to blame.

But now I have to be
the strength that no one sees.
It’s more than coming clean
and it’s saving more than me.

It was me!
It was who that I became.
And I’m more than just a name
and There’s more I need to change.

I believe!
That it’s never far too late.
To repair a broken fate,
and to save the ones you see.
