The Stakes Were Raised

where am i gonna land

in the palm of someone's hand

i should have known that the good part was over

that you would leave at the end of the summer

but the stakes were raised

so i looked the other way

the sky turned red

the world came true

in the way i wanted you

i should have guessed that the moment was passing

i didn't catch all the signs that were flashing

cause the stakes were raised

and so i looked the other way

all of my hoping just turned into lying

kidding myself without even trying

i should have noticed the whole thing way dying

but the stakes were raised

and so i looked the other way

the stakes were raised

and so i looked the other way
