The Game of Life and Love

Love is a game
That I wish I had never played
Life is a maze
That I wish I had never got stuck in
Reincarnation's supposed to make you change
But I'm the same
And back to you
Is where I can't seem to stop running

Life is a trial
I was told would end soon
But of course
it's just a guitar that's all out of tune
And my makeup is always running from my tears
And I end up looking like a sick raccoon

Love is an avalanche
That suddenly swallowed me whole
Life is sneaky
With a heart as black as charcoal
"I love you" is a phrase
That i so desperately need to hear
But I'm afraid
that if I keep moving at the rate I'm going
I love you
Will no longer be sincere

Love is an opportunity
To find the right person
Who'll make you feel alive
Magic is a beautiful thing
But only if you believe in it
Smiling is something too powerful to quit

Love is a game
That I am so glad I played
Life is a maze
That I'm thankful I got stuck in
Reincarnation has its promise
But I'm glad it didn't make me change
And back to you is where
I'll never stop running
