Stalemate

Thick fingers round my neck are grasping in
Waiting for the moment to slide in
Have a drink and let this game begin

Flash light Polaroid and one cheap glass of wine
I think the moon is full I've come undone
Pieces fall, this game has just begun
Oh play me, the next move is you
Oh play me, in my game you lose

White light spins through the fog and shine upon the beach
I touch the moon but it's too far from reach
Just like you I see you but I can't touch you now
Oh play me, the next move is you
Oh play me, in my game you lose

Stalemate, the next move is you
So play me, I'm begging, you know

So play me I lay here
