lyrics

I can see a light on down the hall
and the sordid nature of it all
I know there must be life beyond these walls
though I would surely answer if you called

but I can't play that game again
where you pretend to care
as if it meant much more to you
than just being there

it's a shame it had to end this way
and I'm afraid there's nothing left to say
all we can do is leave the way we came
or try to make it last just one more day

but I can't play that game again
where you pretend to care
as if it meant much more to you
than just being there

seasons past and seasons gone
now you're back again where you don't belong
we could talk the time before the fall
but only this and nothing more

'cause I won't play that game again
where you pretend to care
it never meant much more to you
than just being there
