The Beautiful Game

Stumbling drunk through the garden
I see you designing your empty room
Now the seduction gets old
With the dots and all the crosses
But symmetry looks good on you, oh

You got everything you wanted
You got everything you needed
I know it's hard to believe it, oh
That you got what you wanted
You say that you don't need it, baby
Oh, ain't it such a beautiful game

It's too fast
It's too slow
You can't be serious

It's a lie to think of this love
As anything but laughing at a choir boy
So what you going to do now?
The die's been cast
And the wheel has stopped spinning
Rotating 'til the side collapse

You got everything you wanted
You got everything you needed
I know it's hard to believe it, oh
That you got what you wanted
To say that you don't need it, baby
Oh, ain't it such a beautiful game

(It's too fast, it's too slow)
You want it, you've got it, you take it
Throw it away
(It's too fast, it's too slow)
You want it, you've got it, you take it
Throw it away

Slow down, baby please
When you jump into the water
You will see
Hold your breath for me
When you're falling you will see the symmetry
Slow down, secretly
When you jump into the water
You will see
It's too fast, it's too slow
It's too fast, it's too slow

You got everything you wanted
You got everything you needed
I know it's hard to believe it, oh
That you got what you wanted
You're never gonna need it, baby
Oh, ain't it such a beautiful game

You got everything you wanted
You got everything you needed
You want it, you got it, you take it
Throw it away
You got everything you wanted
You got everything you needed
You want it, you've got it, you take it
Throw it away
