Crazy little games we play
Derrick E Carey 1981 (Sarasota)
I live my life just below the wake
At the moment right before the point breaks
I can always relate to the choices
We half to make
But how long will it take
For you to realize
No one will control my fate
These crazy little games we play
And all the chances that we take.
And yet we are still so far from the truth
These crazy little games we play
Forced me to drift away
No more holding back
I can sense the fear within
The confusion of wanting to let go
But unsure of the perfect little world you adore
