Dirty Game
Where do all the flowers go in the winter time
Where does my heart go when they’re in the room
How can all the leaves dance when there is no wind
How can my mind believe when you’ve got me pinned

It’s a dirty game dirty game dirty game that they
That they teach you
When you’re young when you’re young when you’re young
And full of life
It’s a tired life tired life tired life that they
That they give you
When you’re young when you’re young when you’re young
And your eyes are bright

Imagine you’ve come home after a hard day’s work
And your family’s been robbed of a life that was less than they’d hoped for
Stuck in a dance that just spins against your mind
Stuck in the frenzy of wanting a peace you can’t find

It’s a dirty game dirty game dirty game that they
That they teach you
When you’re young when you’re young when you’re young
And full of life
It’s a tired life tired life tired life that they
That they give you
When you’re young when you’re young when you’re young
And your eyes are bright

Life that’s all I wanted was a life that I could live

When I was a sprout I could feel the sun
Now I’m old and filled with doubt and have come undone
From my eyes a river has been washing as of late
And I’ve seen that I haven’t learned to love or at least to hate

It’s a dirty game dirty game dirty game that they
That they teach you
When you’re young when you’re young when you’re young
And full of life
It’s a tired life tired life tired life that they
That they give you
When you’re young when you’re young when you’re young
And your eyes are bright

Life that’s all I wanted was a life that I could live
