Verse 1

Private notes in history class

Your eyes catch mine, then quickly pass

I'm not some prize upon your shelf

To dust off when there's no one else

You think I'll play along your way

But darling, this ain't yesterday

Chorus

I'm not a game you get to win

Not your queen of hearts to spin

You can't reset when things get real

Or pause the way you made me feel

I'm flesh and blood and beating heart

Not your playground after dark

Verse 2

Remember when behind the bleachers

You said things sweeter than our teachers

Now I see through your design

Each move calculated, so refined

But baby, I'm no chess piece now

Not gonna let you show me how

ohhh

Chorus

I'm not a game you get to win

Not your queen of hearts to spin

You can't reset when things get real

Or pause the way you made me feel

I'm flesh and blood and beating heart

Not your playground after dark Mmm

Bridge

In your varsity jacket crown

Think you've got this whole town down

But I've learned your playbook through and through

And I won't be a score for you

No more moves left to make

I'm the rules you cannot break

Drop

Chorus

Chorus

I'm not a game you get to win

Not your queen of hearts to spin

You can't reset when things get real

Or pause the way you made me feel

I'm flesh and blood and beating heart

Not your playground after dark, no-no Mmmh

Outro

Put away your strategy

'Cause baby, I'm not make-believe

And when you're ready for what's true

You'll know just what to do

But until then, remember this:

I'm not a game you'll ever miss

End
