"Game Over"

Bestowed upon my life
Is a mystery in its perfect form
Sent here to arouse my heart
And to let me play its game

So here I am, solving this riddle
Only to fail time and time again
Can someone give me a clue?
So I can win and take her hand

But the game is unbeatable
The prize at the end is unattainable
I can never claim a victory
Leaving me to think of only what could be

If only she knew my thoughts of her
Then maybe I could stand a chance
But she only thinks me as a friend
She won't even give us a second glance

Now if she would let me try
Then I might finally get to prove
That I mean every word when I say
"I'd give anything to be with you"

But I'm too afraid to take any chances
And she won't give me the time of day
So I guess the feeling isn't mutual
I'll have to find another way

Can someone give me a boost
To continue in this fruitless chase?
Its a wonder that I haven't gone insane
I'm just completely captivated by her grace

My dreams will never be a reality
Leaving me with a false sense of hope
This is the world showing me its cruelty
Someone please help me find a way to cope

Now if she would let me try
Then I might finally get to prove
That I mean every word when I say
"I'd give anything to be with you"

But I'm too afraid to take any chances
And she won't give me the time of day
So I guess the feeling isn't mutual
I'll have to find another way

Now what did she mean by the "I love you"?
Is she giving me a sign?
But paranoia completely overcomes me
I can't get her words out of my mind

I know she thinks we can never be
I already know her final answer
But my heart refuses to let her go
Leading me right back to chasing for her

Now I've reached the end of the line
But I just can't accept this "game over"

Pretty long for a song lyric. Maybe you can chop it down and make it more managable. I think the upshot is there is this woman you have mixed feelings about. You want her in a way, but only in a way.

I guess I just had a lot to say. It was actually about a girl I really liked; we're good friends, but we'll probably never be more than that. Heh, she's not a woman yet. I'm still in high school.
