[Verse 1]
Daddy left the family when I was only two
Later I found out he was abandoned too
Mama said to me to never trust a man
But I'm my father's daughter, now you understand, so I said

[Pre-Chorus]
We can't escape who are
Story repeating, circles are meeting
And now it's taking us back to the start
We try to fight it, but can't live without it

[Chorus]
The games (The games) we play (We play)
Are written by our dark, dark hearts
Our dark, dark hearts
The games (The games) we play (We play)
Are written by our dark, dark hearts

[Verse 2]
We met at the fairground, saw it in your eyes
Twisted love, attraction, you were just my type
Dangerous desire, the legacy we keep
Give in to seduction, there's no guarantee, so I said

[Pre-Chorus]
We can't escape who are
Story repeating, circles are meeting
And now it's taking us back to the start
We try to fight it, but can't drift without it
[Chorus]
The games (The games) we play (We play)
Are written by our dark, dark hearts
Our dark, dark hearts
The games (The games) we play (We play)
Are written by our dark, dark hearts

[Bridge]
Playing out the frequence to the sequence of its drum
Gotta be strong, gotta play on
And don't keep it a secret, just believe and get it done
Gotta be strong, gotta play on
And when those games we play are feeling so passé
Know that we're slaves that move to the beating of our dark, dark hearts

[Outro]
Our dark, dark hearts
The games we play are written by our dark, dark hearts
Our dark, dark hearts
The games we play are feeling so passé
Know that we're slaves that move to the beating of our dark, dark
Hearts
