Frey - Ain't Working Lyrics

When you seem to get my attention
You want to belittle my affection
You got me confused
You got me confused
On what you wanna do
Or what you wanna prove
You got me confused
You got me confused
The clock is ticking again
Am I still just your friend
Maybe you notice
This tough act ain't focus
I question your motives
Your mindset is potent
When you realize how fast time creeps by when you're living
And you think about life outside and everything
You think I'm someone who you can play all your games on
Step back and asses all your thoughts cause it ain't working
I hope you notice not all my focus is set on you
Your omnipotent mind
Wasting all my time
Writing riddles that I can't solve
While all your friends try to get involved
I'm playing chess when you're playing checkers
You write your rules, rearranging letters
Skipping steps of course you're better
You think you got me wrapped around your finger
Dodging hits, jabbing with a stinger
It's getting Rocky, I'm not a quitter
Start to see my warm tone's getting bitter
You hit me hard, take out my sight
I'm going home to get to the light
Should start to listen, my mom was right
You're a walking flag and I'm color blind
Maybe you notice
This tough act ain't focus
I question your motives
Your mindset is potent
When you realize how fast time creeps by when you're living
And you think about life outside and everything
You think I'm someone who you can play all your games on
Step back and asses all your thoughts cause it ain't working
When you realize how fast time creeps by when you're living
And you think about life outside and everything
You think I'm someone who you can play all your games on
Step back and asses all your thoughts cause it ain't working
When you realize how fast time creeps by when you're living
And you think about life outside and everything
You think I'm someone who you can play all your games on
Step back and asses all your thoughts cause it ain't working
Did he say playing chess?
