Breaking Benjamin - No Games Meaning

No Games Lyrics

This game is over
I'm mean and older
You're coming closer
Over and over
My dear Brianna
I need an answer
What was the question?
I can't remember

[Chorus]
Would you, want to
Feel the way that I do?
And I bend, to your will
I've...

   its about people messing with each other's head unnecessarily in relationships while it seems one is trying much harder. though I suspect it may be much more personal than that. (Your not allowed to badmouth people in your songs without getting sued anymore)

   I think this song is about someone who gave everything to the one they loved. They did everything they could to make the relationship work but the girl began playing games with his head. He bent to her will and she was the dominant one while he was the one who really cared. It seems like he took it as a serious relationship but when he noticed it wasn't he then decided to play her game back.
   
   (This game is over
   I'm mean and older) tired of the B.S. basically
   
   (And I bend, to your will
   I've felatted myself) I bend to your will so much... look at the things you make me do. We all know "fellated" in this song means so we don't need to go there lol.
   
   (Tied to the needle
   My drunk libido
   My nervous ego) He's been with her for so long and feels tied to the situation. Like he can't stop. She's like a drug.
   
   (We're all in, so begin
   Just remember: I win)
   He knows that when it ends he's the one who wins. They both- I think loved each other at first but things fell apart. She started playing games and he played them back but wins in the end because he made her fall back in love with him. They're both jerks. Kind of perfect for each other lol in an odd way but he got sick of allowing her to dictate everything. One of my favorite songs. Only the lyricist knows the true meaning to this song. I could be way off.

   Quote from Ben himself "This song is about bitches who fuck with your head, and assholes like me who do it back."
