He whispers to me
That he will come one day
Nothing comes for free
And he'll make me pay
He then says proudly
Torture will come my way
I will pay dearly
Because I wanted fame
Now I want to play a game with you
It's a game that must be played by two
Where I make all your dreams come true
Remember nightmares are dreams too
Now I want to play a game with you
It's a game that must be played by two
Where I make all your dreams come true
Remember nightmares are dreams too
He exclaims boldly
That I sold my soul for fame
He laughs so coldly
As he takes my soul away
Now I want to play a game with you
It's a game that must be played by two
Where I make all your dreams come true
Remember nightmares are dreams too
Now I want to play a game with you
It's a game that must be played by two
Where I make all your dreams come true
Remember nightmares are dreams too
Could not afford the fame
Was just too much to pay
Was never in control
I couldn't pay back what I owed
Now I want to play a game with you
It's a game that must be played by two
Where I make all your dreams come true
Remember nightmares are dreams too
Now I want to play a game with you
It's a game that must be played by two
Where I make all your dreams come true
Remember nightmares are dreams too
Now I want to play a game with you
It's a game that must be played by two
Where I make all your dreams come true
Remember nightmares are dreams too
Now I want to play a game with you
It's a game that must be played by two
Where I make all your dreams come true
Remember nightmares are dreams too
