Play Lyrics by Zed (NZL)

Future Memory

2024

[Verse 1]
Here we go once again, feel my heart caving in
If the price of her smile is a game
Then I don't wanna play these games
These games, these games

[Verse 2]
If the cost of a queen is a king
Then I don't wanna play that game
See my hand
Do I go all in and lose everything?

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause I'm starting to get my life back, starting to feel alright that
Things didn't work out like I thought they might have
I couldn't compromise, but you wouldn't make your mind up
Things didn't work out like we thought they might have

[Chorus]
These games, these games, these games
I don't wanna play these games
These games, these games
These games

[Interlude]
Things didn't work out like I thought they might have
Things didn't work out like we thought they might have

[Chorus]
These games, these games
These games

[Verse 3]
You opened up my eyes but kept me in the dark
I see the ghost of you, remember the way we spark
I shouldn't be surprised, you set me up to lose
Now I've seen you with the lie
I'm not gonna get played by you, your move, your lie

[Breakdown]
Don't wanna be played, don't wanna get played
By you, your move, your lie
Don't wanna be played, don't wanna get played
By you, your move, your lie

[Overlapping]
(Starting to get my life back, starting to feel alright that)
(Things didn't work out like I thought they might have)
Don't wanna be played, don't wanna get played
By you, your move, your lie
(I couldn't compromise, but you wouldn't make your mind up)
Don't wanna be played, don't wanna get played
By you, your move, your lie
(Starting to get my life back, life back, life back)
(Things didn't work out like I thought they might have)
By you, your move, your lie
(I couldn't compromise, but)
These games, these games
(Things didn't work out like we thought they might have)
By you, your move, your lie
(Starting to get my life back, life back, life back)
(Things didn't work out like I thought they might have)
By you, your move, your lie
(I couldn't compromise, but)
These games, these games
(Things didn't work out like we thought they might have)
By you, your move, your lie

[Outro]
These games, these games, these games
I don't wanna play these games
These games, these games
Don't wanna be played, don't wanna get played
By you, your move, your lie
(These games, these games, these games)
Don't wanna be played, don't wanna get played
(I don't wanna play these games)
By you, your move, your lie
(These games, these games, these games)
Don't wanna be played, don't wanna get played
