Rock Paper Scissors (A Love Triangle)

You are made of stone
I am made of paper
I wrap myself around you
And you are mine.

I am made of paper
You are made of stone
You hurl yourself into me
Breaking my heart.

She is a pair of scissors
She opens her legs
Cutting me into pieces.
You stand watching, waiting your turn.

She is a pair of scissors.
You smash her blades apart.
I didn't ask you to do that,
But you did it.

And it's too late.
Too late for any of us now.
The game is over
And no one has won.
