Let the music breathe upon my face
Every step of the way
Through the anguish I make
Back the rest I made
I'm seeing you as clear and blue
Like lovers do
You should too

I am not playing a game with you
To show that I can get ahead
Just like any weak man would do
When he's losing

When life's confusing way to bring you down
Has you got you pissing yourself
While you're thinking out loud
Try and figure out the best approach to being true
Like lovers do, you should, you should too

I am not playing a game with you
To show that I can get ahead
Just like any weak man would do
When he's losing

You can't just give it all away
This is all we have saved
There is nothing here between us
This is not what we had planned
There's so much more
Got nothing without each other
We've got nothing

I am not playing a game with you
To show that I can get ahead
Just like any weak man would do
When he's losing

Reminds me of Elliott Smith in a good way.

Its average at best
 
it's better than average most average is over rated this
is just right at the center of being good or better than good
almost great except for the ahh ahh in the second chorus
but they were trying hard and they were into it and think of
all the gear they had to plug in i'm not playing a game with you
to show that i can get ahead just like penny we're playing with dew
when you keep losing losing losing losing
see what i mean ?

This is awful (sorry) - not catchy or melodic.

It is a good song, but after hearing it every day, it gets to be wearing a bit thin. 
Somebody probably complained about Vampire Weekend, Night Sky and it got removed from the playlist.  It is such a happy song.

I really enjoyed the mixes when we first started listening two years ago.  There was quite the cultural conglomeration.  It seems like there might be a rut, though.  As a constant listener, I am hearing the same tunes every day.  I started going to alternatives such as... gasp!  Pandora.
 
Good luck with that!  {#Snooty}

I bought this album in 2009 while on Amazon's $5 features...or whatever they call it.  Great songs throughout.  If you like this track, pick up a copy, it will not disappoint.

the guitar playing is almost Pentangle-like at the end...and that's real good.
