Lyrics
Start
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
