I want to play the game, but I’m scared that I’ll lose

I’m still suffering the loss from last time

I’ve played since then but I haven’t gone as far

I refuse to play that long again so soon

My wound still aren’t healed, but his are fine

He never suffered the pain that I felt

Should I throw the dice or just walk by?

I know what’s right but I still hold him close

Maybe if I close my eyes tight enough I won’t have to choose
