The Game - Nightingale

The two of us, so young and so wild

We can’t find the cure to what has led us astray

Far apart from what we once were

And we both made a choice there’s no turning back from here

There’s no turning back from here

But we have no aim, just keeping up the pace

Who’s the best of us, who’s the stronger one

Will it ever end?

This escalating game

We’re reborn to live on the edge

Who’s the bravest of us?

Who will live to tell?

I’m so scared of what we’ve become

As we double the bets, the proportions exceed ourselves

The proportions exceed our sanity

We have gone from meek to brave

And we’re chasing a dream that never will come true

Letting go of all our fears

The unavoidable end is the enemy we defy

But we have no aim, just keeping up the pace

Who’s the best of us, who’s the stronger one

Will it ever end?

This escalating game

There can be only one
