Never felt I’d get to be that guy Who hurts a girl so much she cries Never thought I’d be that guy Who denies and tells so many lies Never ever knew it would come to this Cause I’ve always despised that guy That guy who plays a girl for the fool So much that she can’t forget his name That guy a girl wished she never met Cause he played her heart like a video game That guy who works so hard to get the girl Then lets her go That guy who loves to put a girl in the spotlight Just to steal the show That guy who doesn’t care If she gets hurt as he leaves his trademark That guy who breaks a girls heart And leaves her all alone in the dark That guy who doesn’t apologise Cause a one night stand was all part of the plan That guy they all call a player Thought she was my happy ever after Thought we were meant to be Thought she was my love & life full of laughter Thought she belonged to me Thought to introduce her to my mother But she never crossed that line Thought we we’re more than friends But she never felt the same Thought I knew her more than anything But she was just playing target practice With my emotions She wrapped me round her beautiful corruption And fed me the sweet taste of her forbidden fruit She played the melody of the devil And I danced to the rhythm of the music She tore me up to shreds And brought me back down to earth She reminded me of my old ways And the games I played back in the days She reminded me about karma And showed me what payback feels like She reminded me that two can play the game
