Tamsyn Miller - Checkmate lyrics

[Verse 1] So you got what you want Her hand in yours while I go on blindly I've given you all I've got There's no more All the while I was up, you were Cuttin' me down, thinking you'd defeat me Wetting white pawns with your blood And stealing my crown [Pre-Chorus 1] This is a battle A duel of minds A game of sk** And right from square one I've been devising your fall [Chorus] 'Cause if you move to the left, move to the right And if you move to the front, move to the side Either way I have won This game's over and done Sorry son You can't outsmart fate Checkmate [Verse 2] You've got your strategies Good for you But there's no plan That I don't see through I'll capture your bishops, your knights, and king's horses And I'll capture your castle, too [Pre-Chorus 2] 'Cause this is a battle A match of wits A game of sk** And finally in this backwards looking-gla** world The outblast is soon to be still [Chorus] 'Cause if you move to the left, move to the right (Checkmate) And if you move to the front, move to the side (Either way) Either way I have won This game's over and done Sorry son You can't outsmart fate Checkmate [Bridge] (?) isn't easy as making a move But explain all you will You've still got much to prove I'm so sick of this fight My life's not black and white Do you think all this scheming is through? [Chorus] 'Cause if you move to the left, move to the right (Checkmate) And if you move to the front, move to the side (Either way) Either way I have won This game's over and done Sorry son You can't outsmart fate [Chorus] 'Cause if you move to the left, move to the right (Checkmate) And if you move to the front, move to the side (Either way) Either way I have won Go ahead, try to run Sorry son It's too late to escape Checkmate
