Just Another Game
-
The pieces are set,
The game has begun
To the one who loses,
Their sanity undone
-
The King? The Queen?
Who should they be?
Which pieces to sacrifice,
Will you choose me?
-
The pawns, your defense
With your Queen, you oppose
With each piece that you lose
Your desperation, it grows
-
Crooked are Bishops
One on black, one on white
Two elegant dancers
Both forced into the fight
-
The Knights? Royal servants
They're there to be used
Is that your opinion?
Such abstracted views
-
Rooks or Castles,
To defend or destroy
Tell me, how many
Will you send to the void?
-
Behind enemy lines,
You can't let them in
Which pieces to gamble,
Which lives to end?
-
Every piece should be treasured
No matter how weak
If you failed to notice
You're future looks bleak
-
All your pieces now lost
But I still wish to know,
Who's the King? All these sacrifices,
But nothing to show
-
The King's not the ruler
He's the one to protect
So who is your King?
Have you decided yet?
-
Checkmate, you lost
You've got nothing left
Your kingdom destroyed,
Time to pay up the debt
-
But, to you it's all just a game
Just barely sane, and yet
The endless battle continues
The pieces, reset
