                                              i let them win
 they don't know that
 i pretended it just happened but i planned all of it 
                          why?
 you may ask
 i felt like i should
 when i looked into their eyes
 and saw sadness staring back at me 
                          i enjoyed losing
 even more than they loved winning
 because i knew it would make them feel better if only for one minute
 so i let them win
