the first moment you hesitate 
better ask yourself why 
don't you wait until it's too late 
until something inside has died 

when you're paralysed, no direction at all 
found yourself way up high 
no there's only space to fall 
when you're losing 
even when you know [bad word] 
must be a game for fools 

coz the 
the first moment you hesitate 
better ask yourself why 
don't you wait until it's too late 
until something inside has died 

ooh 

yeah it's easy down the line 
to make a map of your lies 
but you can't keep on 
keep on keeping the [bad word] 
well disguised 
acting like it was alright 
when it was all wrong 

and you feel you've wasted so much time 
forever 
trying to make up your mind 
now it's clear you should have just moved on 
simply packed your bags and gone 

coz the 
the first moment you hesitate 
you can kiss those plans goodbye 
don't you wait until it's too late 
or something inside might die 

if you're losing 
when you know 
yeah you know all [bad word] 
must be playing a game for fools 

congratulations 

yeah you're winning the game 
for fools
