The Game
Band Mango Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And i will not pretend
I will always be the one than that loves
And be the one that cares
I have some certain things i trust with all my sinfull heart
And i know that i will always be the one that scared and i
Will never be you fucking friend
Ill never see one to pretend
I don't wanna hear don't wanna see don't wanna feel rumours around you
I don't wanna hear don't wanna see don't wanna feel the you die
I don't wanna hear don't wanna see don't wanna feel rumours around you
Cause if i do, i know i swear to god its true
This conversation faced the end
Theres no need to pretend
All you high hopes placed where you just wanting me to play your game
I still have certain things i trust, with all my sinful heart
And i know that i will always be the one that stays this way
Will never be you fucking friend
Ill never see one to pretend
Always feel the way you love
I don't wanna hear don't wanna see don't wanna feel rumours around you
I don't wanna hear don't wanna see don't wanna feel the you die
I don't wanna hear don't wanna see don't wanna feel rumours around you
Cause if i do, i know i swear to god its true
Don't wanna see the way you cry,
Don't wanna see the way you die
Don't wanna see the way you cry
I don't wanna see the way you die
Listen to the words i say life aint hard its easy like a game
But every game got rules and misteries,
But the main is not to lie to yourself
The lyrics to Band Mango's "The Game" speaks to the challenges of relationships and the desire for honesty and authenticity. The singer expresses their commitment to being the one who loves and cares within a conversation that seems to have no end. They acknowledge their fears and trust certain things with their "sinful" heart. Despite this, they refuse to pretend to be someone's friend and will always feel the way they love.
As the conversation faces the end, the singer realizes that the other person placed high hopes on them playing their game, but they refuse to play along. They reiterate their commitment to staying true to themselves and not being someone's friend just to pretend. The chorus repeats the refrain of not wanting to hear, see, or feel rumors around the other person, and the consequences if they do.
The final lines urge listeners to listen to the words being said and acknowledge that life may have rules and mysteries, but the most important thing is not to lie to oneself. It hints at the idea that relationships, like a game, may have rules, and a lack of honesty will ultimately lead to the game's failure.
