[Intro, spoken]
When you drink, I get drunk too
I take the poison just like you
The things you say, they cut me down
But somehow I still stick around
If you want out, then why not say it?
No more head games, I won’t play it
[Verse 1]
You can tell by my reaction that I’d give you anything to make you stay a night
‘Cause every time you chip away my dignity, I just die
I’m so addicted to the drama that we both feed
I keep promising myself I’ll leave
You know just what to say
All my insecurities set me free
[Chorus]
Head games is all we know
Where did the tenderness go
‘Cause we can’t hold on and
Can’t let go
Head games are all
They’ll, they’ll, they’ll know
They’ll, they’ll, they’ll know
[Verse 2]
Why do you need to see me cry just to prove I love you
When I say I do again and again
You’re pushing me into a corner when no one’s gonna win
Oh, you must feel powerful cutting me down
Just so you know
I’m so broken I can’t stand on my own
You’d rather see me suffering than face yourself alone
Let me go
[Chorus]
Head games is all we know
Where did the tenderness go
‘Cause we can’t hold on and
Can’t let go
Head games are all
They’ll, they’ll, they’ll know
They’ll, they’ll, they’ll know
They’ll, they’ll, they’ll know
They’ll, they’ll, they’ll know
[Bridge]
But you know just what to say
All my insecurities
Will I ever be free?
[Chorus]
Head games is all we know
Where did the tenderness go
‘Cause we can’t hold on and
Can’t let go
Head games are all
They’ll, they’ll, they’ll know
They’ll, they’ll, they’ll know
