Our Childish Tendencies

You say I like the drama game
That may be what you believe still
I think you like to shift the blame

This fight is getting less than tame
I see you moving in for the kill
You say I like the drama game

I've got your number and your name
Things you do leave me absolutely ill
I think you like to shift the blame

Laugh in my face if that's your aim
Been here before, you know the drill
You say I like the drama game

Yet to the heavens I must proclaim
With my voice going hoarse and shrill
I think you like to shift the blame

You know we're pretty much the same
Through the tears we say what we will
You say I like the drama game
I think you like to shift the blame
