Playing the Part — текст песни (The Prize Fight)

It`s Friday night and there`s nothing left to talk about.
The silence shatters like a glass pane broken on the ground,
as your name rings out.
It`s been a while since I`ve spoke or even thought of you.
I`d say I miss you but again the glares will shut me down,
so I`ll leave it out.

Suspicions rattle every feeling that I had for you.
They`re overshadowing the times you said "forget them now." I listened well.
All those lies that you`d hoped would never get around,
Have finally surfaced and the contract out on your heart is collected now.

You thought I`d never hear the rumors,
and said "no matter what, don`t listen."
You think that I don`t care about you.
Well you brought it on yourself.

Breaking hearts has become this little game to you.
I`m sick of trying to mend up all the scattered parts of broken hearts.
It`s not enough that I know you`ve been with other guys,
I`ve got to hear it from my best friend that he turned you down.
And you`ve let me down.

But the truth be told, I`m breaking down,
and my jaded thoughts are fading out.
Everything I used to say, I`ll mean again.
Three weeks have gone by since you`ve been in my mind.
But tonight.... simple?, lonely?,
PATHETIC me!, I cried.

I`m forced to mock all that you stand for.
So simply close your ears, don`t listen.
It`s time you wise up to your senses.
(I don`t care about you.)

And you`ll hate this,
and won`t take it lying down.
But you`ll learn,
You brought it on yourself.
