Lyrics
Can't play your game, so take me away
But without me, you're incomplete
I'm the missing piece, trick or a treat
Smile on my face, laughin' and jokin'
Usually lonely and if you hold me
I'll make you stronger, I wanna do that
Oh, it's drivin' me mad
I want what you have
Oh, what a shame, no one to blame
Without escape, tears on my face
Call me insane, put me in a box
Tell me who I am and all that I'm not
Are you confused? I know, me too
Winnin' or losin', I don't need a suit
Put me on trial and I'll tell the truth
If you want me to

Diamonds and spades, jack of all trades
I'm having trouble not finding my place
Been around kings, I had a queen
Lost in the club with my heart on my sleeve
I can't behave, lock me away
Learnin' to juggle and losing my faith

Live to get ahead of the race, necessary evil
Always gonna feel out of place, room full of people

Can't play your game, I tried to change
Painted my face, made a new name
Are you entertained?
