Miho Nozaka
~~~
I'm faint
Standing here waiting
Late and hating
Where's the men I've been baiting
Or is it just fate
~~
He'll be around
Floundering
With fumbled promises found
While I watch for other prizes
It won't be long before he realizes
That I'm searching for something else
Questing on the way down
~~
But for now, on his soul I'll dance
Asking for a second chance
It's the challenge I play
Not with cards, but with hearts
Cooling their passions with mind over what matters
Each defeat brought in a different way
Leaving their fantasies in tatters
~~
And I'm a skillful player
I distract my opponent with their hopes of a look
Booking their chances, waiting in line
For a possibility of taking back what's now mine
Yet I can cast them away
Save their affections for another day
As they keep trying to win back the hearts that I took
~~
There's really no need for my latest
Not greatest
Opponent in love
He'll get but a taste and then
I'll send him off down to the other pawns in my soul
Fame isn't my method
Neither is it my goal
The queen of hearts wins every game
But the crushes they have on me all look the same
~~
Because I'm guiltless
I'm not harming
Charming them with the illusion of my delicacy
They never see my felacy
All the better for my game plan
If they find me disarming
Then I'm just closer to yet another victory
~~
I know in the end he'll pain
His love will wane and I'll be free
To test out the limits of my new strategy
On other opponents in the darkest of places
A new challenge met in stormy-eyed faces
I'll be there to play him too
I'll defeat him and make him see
My own decieving graces...
