Lyrics Grade School Games - Dessa

Grade School Games

Love
Drugs
Sex
Pain
Those are just grade school games
Nothing major
Nothing ages
Nothing changes
But the names and dates
Fear
Pride
Faith
Shame
Those are just grade school games
Nothing major
Nothing ages
Nothing stranger
Than the neighbor’s place
You can’t make me play by all new rules
Some kids barely practice but I do
Love
Drugs
Sex
Pain
Those are just grade school games
Nothing major
No new dangers
The operations
Of arcades don’t change
Blush
Pull
Push
Blame
Those are just grade school games
Nothing major
Old behaviors
Trade some favors
Then give chase, take aim
You can’t make me play by all new rules
Some kids barely practice but I do
I’m old enough to know how this goes and how it all plays out
The end is always when the ring is empty and we all fall down
Love
Drugs
Sex
Pain
Those are just grade school games
Nothing major
Nothing ages
Nothing changes
But the names and dates
