Fun Game
Shawn Thornburg

You were a fun game while I played you.
But now you�re over;
And I�m over you.
So we need to pick up these pieces.
But putting them back
Is a whole new game.
I did all I could to play that game,
So it�s no longer
My problem at all.
It�s your job to put yourself away.
So don�t cry to me
When you�re in pieces:
I won�t pick you up.
You were a fun game while I played you.
But now you�re over;
And I�m over you.
So you need to pick up your pieces,
And live your own life.
