The Gambit

You took control, and paved your own road, and you're trying to go back the way that you came.
I was bought, I was sold, and hung out to dry in the cold, and now you don't get to say my name.

I'm not moving from this place.

The world it still turned, and the oceans they burned, burned memories of pain in my brain.
It's not the first time we all bought into your lines, you promised us change, but yet you still stayed the same.

I'm not moving from this place.

If ever you need my help, please, don't hesitate to call somebody else.
If ever you need a shoulder to lean upon, consider me gone.

So far gone.

My forgiveness runs true, but it's not for you, it's something for me so at night I can
sleep.
Pushed to the brink, while you didn't lose a wink, I just couldn't stand it, so this is the gambit for me.

I'm not moving from this place.

If ever you need my help, please, don't hesitate to call somebody else.
If ever you need a shoulder to lean upon, consider me gone.

So far gone.
