Game Over

I had an idea for a little song,
something I wanted to write for you.
I was a little sleepy, my head was hazy,
just drifting along in a fuzzy dazy,
so I wrote it down, just to see it thru.

Oh, I’m trying to tell you how I feel,
but the words on the page aren’t feeling real.
I’m chasing a feeling, I’m losing the line,
just trying to make this melody mine.

After I wrote it, I took a look back,
I figured my rhythm was way off track,
so I rewrote the lines, I polished the view,
just so I’d know that you’d like it too,
yeah, I wanted to be perfect for you.

Well, after the second time and I realized then,
that the words on the page weren’t where I began,
what I was writing weren’t the same,
as the thoughts in my head,
when I whispered your name.

By the third try, I was lost in the woods,
I couldn’t remember the way that I should.
I forgot the meaning, I forgot the cue,
forgot what I was trying to say to you,
just a confused man with nothing new.

I guess you could call it a “strike out”.
The kinda mistake I know all about,
just like the way I did with you,
yeah, kinda like the way I did with you.

Mi Vida [Letra] Por: DLD

English Translation:

So finally they’ve told you everything
well, now you know my defects
if I went out with this guy and that one,
with this girl and that other one,
with this one and that other.

So you’re going to break up with me
no, don’t say anything, I understand you
you fear that a man like me
will harm you very much, and that’s not true

I’ve gone away from here for now
I left a bit of everything and without measure
but I swear you’ll never cry
for what was my life

So finally they’ve told you, love,
I’m sure they’ve told you, be careful
because a man who’s been like me
ends up returning to his past

No, I can’t respond, love,
the only thing I know is that I love you
and in that, there’s neither force nor law
that can move it, that’s sacred

I’ve gone away from here for now
I left a bit of everything and without measure
but I swear you’ll never cry
for what was my life

Commentary: One of the problems is that a lot of toxic relationship habits are baked into our culture. We worship romantic love—you know, that dizzying and irrational kind. Men and women are encouraged to objectify each other and to objectify their romantic relationships. These partners are often seen as achievements or prizes rather than someone to share mutual emotional support.
