Mind Games Revised
I chose to play your mind games.

But since we’re in this together,
you can push my buttons,
cheat as you wish,
orchestrate foul play,
and rig and control me.

Since we’re in this together,
you can attack me with combos,
affordable to lose,
be the killjoy of our team,
and I'll enjoy the action,
while you shed your true colors.

Since we’re in this together,
I would beg to differ,
change the rules,
battle for the throne with one life left,
to claim the prize of independence.
Since we’re in this together,
I am going to put my foot down
because you forced my hand.
I am going to complete the final stage,
break the barriers confining us inside,
and forge a boundary between you and I
because we’re not on the same level.

I am looking in the eyes of my enemy,
about to pull the plug,
and soon to take you down with me in this relationship,
since we’re in this together.
