Bow Out

[Verse 1]

A lot of what she said

And much of what she did

I don't doubt that she meant well

While drifting and wounded

But it's a game she plays

A game I'd never win

Those days aren't coming back

To change the state I'm in

[Chorus]

In the darkness I forgot that the game was all about

Making up reality, and jealousy, and doubt

I bow out

[Verse 2]

Everything I am

Or what I used to be

Is not part of the hollow shell

Of the man that you see

All the time unsure

All my days, a waste

Never knowing where I stood

Much less which way I face

[Chorus]

In the darkness I forgot that the game was all about

Making up reality, and jealousy, and doubt

I bow out
