Games I Play

about

I'm so excited to release to you all my second single. This is a song I'm really proud of and worked with some amazing people to release it!

lyrics

Maybe he’s born with it
Maybe the heartbreak is getting to him
It seems that he’s over it
What will we lose in the cynicism

I don’t wanna know
What I can’t be
Do you think that your dad wouldn’t like me
But we had a nice chat about coffee
I thought I came across well

I don’t wanna know
What I can’t be
I couldn’t make you jealous if it’s what I fancied
I just wanna dance with another man
And lay on your backseat


I’m always gonna feel dumb
And I know that somehow
Trying to be the one
Is redundant now
That kind of deal takes two

And I’m sensing your yearning half a mile away
What the hell does it mean when you won’t even play
All the parts that cast for yourself when you stayed
I no longer know what to say
It’s the games I play

Maybe I’m born with it
The way that I yearn for romanticism
I’ve gotta get over it
Maybe I’ll learn from his pragmatism

I don’t wanna know
What I can’t be
Do you think that your dad wouldn’t like me
I could revise all the history books
And we would come across well

I already know
What I can’t be
I couldn’t make you jealous if it’s what I fancied
I just wanna dance with another man
And lay on your backseat


I’m always gonna feel dumb
And I know that somehow
Trying to be the one
Is redundant now
That kind of deal takes two

And I’m sensing your yearning half a mile away
What the hell does it mean when you won’t even play
All the parts that cast for yourself when you stayed
I no longer know what to say
It’s the games I play
