Checkmate

You’ve got these feelings,

but does he feel the same?

He’s got you weeping,

does he even know your name?

Why do you think of him?

What is it you see?

You put all your trust in him,

There's no guarantee

There' no guarantee (repeat)

Staying out late you know he plays the game,

that’s checkmate.

I’ve seen it all before

And now I’m getting bored

I am your witness,

yeah I can see the pain.

And when you're smiling

he looks the other way

Why do you think of him?

What is it you see?

You put all your trust in him,

There's no guarantee

There's no guarantee (repeat)

Staying out late you know he plays the game,

that’s checkmate.

I’ve seen it all before

And now I’m getting bored

interlude

You’ve gone to far and let him in,

cant you see you've let him win

You know one thing, the thing about you

there’s so much shit you can’t see through

He’s got your heart in his hands now

how long will it take to turn him down?

There's no guarantee (repeat)

Staying out late you know he plays the game,

that’s checkmate.

I’ve seen it all before

And now I’m getting bored
