Games Lyrics

[Verse 1: Tessa Violet]
I don't want a piece of that
'Cause I know there's no peace in that
I can tell myself a thousand times
But you can make a toy of me
And I'll agree that maybe I just couldn't see
Couldn't see that there ain't nothin' wrong with us at all

[Chorus: Tessa Violet, lovelytheband, Tessa Violet & lovelytheband]
But you keep on playing games with me, games
And you always gotta play with me, play
And I hate the way you break and you take and you tear me down
Boy, you really oughta knock it off right now
Games with me, games
And you always gotta play with me, play
And I hate the way you break and you take and you tear me down
Boy, you really oughta knock it off right now

[Verse 2: lovelytheband]
I know I should trust my gut
'Cause I know that there's somethin' up
I just hate thе place that that path would lead me down
And you say that thеre's nothin' wrong
And I long to take you at your word, but then
All along you're hiding even when you're by my side
[Chorus: Tessa Violet, lovelytheband, Tessa Violet & lovelytheband]
And you keep on playing games with me, games
And you always gotta play with me, play
And I hate the way you break and you take and you tear me down
Boy, you really oughta knock it off right now
Games with me, games
And you always gotta play with me, play
And I hate the way you break and you take and you tear me down
Boy, you really oughta knock it off right now

[Post-Chorus: lovelytheband & Tessa Violet, Tessa Violet]
You lying
And everything with you is tryin'
And I don't wanna keep on cryin'
If I'm the only one
And I been tellin' everyone I'm fine
But I feel like I lost my mind, oh
Am I the only one?


[Bridge: Tessa Violet, lovelytheband]
If I knew it all along
Was I wrong to take you at your word but then
All along you're
hiding even when you're by my side

[Chorus: Tessa Violet, lovelytheband, Tessa Violet & lovelytheband]
And you keep on playing games with me, games
And you always gotta play with me, play
And I hate the way you break and you take and you tear me down
Boy, you really oughta knock it off right now
Games with me, games
And you always gotta play with me, play
And I hate the way you break and you take and you tear me down
Boy, you really oughta knock it off right now
[Post-Chorus: lovelytheband & Tessa Violet, Tessa Violet]
You lying
And everything with you is tryin'
And I don't wanna keep on cryin'
If I'm the only one (Off right now)
And I been tellin' everyone I'm fine
But I feel like I lost my mind, oh
Am I the only one?
(Off right now)

[Outro: Tessa Violet & lovelytheband]
Boy, you really oughta knock it off right now
