Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Nice to meet you, where you been?
I can show you incredible things
Magic, madness, heaven, and sin
Saw you there and I thought
Oh my God, look at that face
You look like my next mistake
Love's a game, do you wanna play?
[Verse 2]
New money, suit and tie
I can read you like a magazine
Ain't it funny? Rumors fly
And I know you heard about me
So hey, let's be friends
I'm dying to see how this one ends
Grab your passport and my hand
[Verse 3]
So it's gonna be forever
Or it's gonna go down in flames
You can tell me when it's over
If the high was worth the pain
Got a long list of ex-lovers
They'll tell you I'm insane
'Cause you know I love the players
And you love the game
[Verse 4]
So goddamn reckless
We'll take this way too far
It'll leave you breathless
Or with a nasty scar
Got a long list of ex-lovers
They'll tell you I'm insane
But I've got a blank space, baby
And I'll write your name
[Verse 5]
Cherry lips, crystal skies
I could show you incredible things
Stolen kisses, pretty lies
I'm your King and you're my Queen
Find out what you want
Be that girl for a month
Wait, the worst is yet to come
[Verse 6]
Screaming, crying, perfect storms
I can make all the tables turn
Rose garden filled with thorns
Keeping you second guessing like
Oh my God, who is she?
I get drunk on jealousy
But you'll come back each time you leave
[Verse 7]
So it's gonna be forever
Or it's gonna go down in flames
You can tell me when it's over
If the high was worth the pain
Got a long list of ex-lovers
They'll tell you I'm insane
'Cause you know I love the players
And you love the game
[Verse 8]
So goddamn reckless
We'll take this way too far
It'll leave you breathless
Or with a nasty scar
Got a long list of ex-lovers
They'll tell you I'm insane
But I've got a blank space, baby
I'll write your name
I'll write your name
I'll write your name
I'll write your name
