[Intro]
[Verse 1]
I gave you my heart, didn’t hold back a thing
Believed every lie, like a bird on a string
You painted me dreams in the sky with no ground
I was lost in your voice, now I hate that sound
[Pre-Chorus]
I was the fire, you were the rain
You washed away what I tried to sustain
Now I see clear, through all of the pain
You were the lesson, I won’t learn again
[Chorus]
You played me like a game, like I didn’t feel a thing
Told me I was your queen, but it didn’t mean a thing
Now I’m picking up the pieces of the woman I used to be
You fooled me once, but baby — you won’t fool me twice, you’ll see
[Verse 2]
I wore your love like a crown made of glass
Didn’t see the cracks ‘til they cut me at last
Now I’m standing here, with truth in my hands
You were just a boy, never a man
[Pre-Chorus]
I gave too much, you gave too little
Stuck in your web, caught in the middle
But I’ve found strength, I’ve found my voice
And now I walk away, my final choice
[Chorus]
You played me like a game, like I didn’t feel a thing
Told me I was your queen, but it didn’t mean a thing
Now I’m picking up the pieces of the woman I used to be
You fooled me once, but baby — you won’t fool me twice, you’ll see
[Bridge]
Now I’m wiser, now I’m free
No more chains, you won’t break me
What you took, I’ll take back stronger
This broken heart won’t break much longer
[Final Chorus]
You played me like a game, but I’ve learned how to win
No more tears, no more giving in
Now I’m walking tall, and I’m taking back me
You fooled me once — but now I finally see
[Outro]
