In “Play God”, singer Catie Turner reminisces over a past relationship. It is evident that she misses the relationship, shown by the fact that she tries to find similar traits in other relationships, but still, she is unable to fix their relationship.
[Verse 1]
New York, it don't feel the same without you
'Cause everything's a different shade of blue
Waiting for the train in Penn Station
Hoping that I might fall into you
[Pre-Chorus]
I keep holding on to something expired
Said I love you forever and I'm not a liar, hmm
[Chorus]
But I can't play God with you and I
I tried to make you stay a thousand times
So I try to find you in different guys
But they ain't you, they ain't you
I can't play God with you and I
How can I be mad when you ain't mine?
So I try to find you in different guys
But they ain't you, I wish it was you
[Verse 2]
I got a message saved and I might send it
But I don't think that I'm brave enough
So I'll save it my notes and I'll pretend that
I'll show it to you when we're meeting up, hmm-hmm, hmm
[Pre-Chorus]
I keep holding on to something expired
Hmm, hmm-hmm, hmm-hmm
You're running through my mind and now I'm too tired, hmm-hmm
[Chorus]
But I can't play God with you and I
I tried to make you stay a thousand times
So I try to find you in different guys
But they ain't you, they ain't you
I can't play God with you and I
How can I be mad when you ain't mine?
So I try to find you in different guys
But they ain't you, I wish it was you
[Outro]
I'm scared that I'll never feel those feelings again
'Cause I can't play God with you and I
I tried to make you stay a thousand times
So I try to find you in different guys
But they ain't you, I wish it was you
