Lovers Mind Games

Always playing mind games 
games I didn’t play 
I would speak my mind straight 
misinterpret what I say 

you must think I deserve too 
live my life just to serve you 
I give to you get nothing back 
you’re comfortable living like that 

I gave you all the power 
and happily you reigned 
but then I went and dumped you 
ain’t the power strange 

figure it out, figure head 
you haven’t got the power 
any girl sitting on my throne
is there cuz I allow her 

you have been my puppet 
but now it’s a Republic 
you are cold and very distant 
I know I want something different 

in your mind game you can’t see 
this is the end of you and me 
you think it’s a tactic to power grab 
9 days go passed “how long will this last?” 

see I was in a relationship 
and you were playing power games 
so I thought nah I’m done with it 
dumped yet you’re playing games 

you played those games I never took part 
convinced I’m playing a waiting game 
but I’m not, so now, goodbye! 
Bam! Reality hit you hard! 

You didn’t think to do anything that would keep me around 
you played those two long weeks before reality was found 

what do you think would attract me, 
you do nothing satisfactory 
just wait for me to gift to you 
while you do nothing, 
that’s why we are through
you made it easy leaving you!

I will find a Queen who is worthy of the crown,
it clearly wasn’t you inside out and upside down!
