Taking Stock

Written for a songwriting competition in 2016. 
Lyrics. Because I can. 

It fell apart, 
You played your cards just right, 
A timid start, 
Was it just beginner's luck 
Or a strangest night? 

P-Chorus
There's nothing wrong with games, 
Nothing but a robber's guilt
Like a sheep led far astray, 
I was tethered to your will. 

Chorus
Oh and you, you had every right to take
Up until you took what should be yours
As if you, oh you never had enough
You won the game, but lost my heart
You won the game, but lost my heart. 

V2
We're playing nice, 
There's give and take for both
Roll the dice
As you set our hopes upon the longest road. 

V3
Feed the fire
The brick and lumber spend
Loathesome ire, 
As the enemy of my enemy becomes my friend.
