Chess lyrics

[Chorus]

They hate when I’m around, they want to see me frown
They want to bring me down ‘cause I’m on the way up, woah
Life’s like a game of chess, you’re in check when you’re depressed
Need to find a way out before it’s too late, there’s no escape then you’re in checkmate (x2)

[Verse 1]

Hello depression, yeah it’s me again
Yeah back for some more, yeah this is sweet revenge
Can you please grant my wish to be free again? And can I kindly ask you that we never meet again?
Man I don’t know what to do, yeah my life’s run out of use
Got no money, got no views, should I detonate the fuse?
I’m afraid they’ll hear the news that they put you in a noose
They think what they’ve got to lose, then they’ll come and follow you
I say life’s a game of chess ‘cause we’re all pieces in the game
We’re all pawns, we don’t matter, in the end we’re all the same
Only way we can be different is if we go and make a change
Show your morals, show your courage and make sure they know your name
That’s hard in a world where we choose who gets attention
It causes you depression when you think you’re in contention
You fail the first time, decide time for reinvention, but you lost all your honesty now you’re asking for redemption
Sometimes you think of the worst things in life
To make it seem like your future’s bright
No I can’t see the light, no I don’t feel alright
You consider me your friend when I don’t wanna be
How come you now ain’t given me what you promised me?
My internal thoughts never get seen
I just want to be set free
