She love it when she wake up, and I'm still behind her
Got my pillows full of makeup, I ain't mad, but kinda
She be playing mind games, and I'm a master minder
I'm a sucker for love, but I ain't pacifier
But I can't deny ya, I'm a man on fire
She's a man-eater and I was just an appetizer
But if shit get out of hand, I keep sanitizer
She said, "I'm too hot for your ass," and now my pants on fire, but
If I played guitar the way you play games with my heart
I'd play you a fuckin' song, so clap them hands that rub me wrong
I got you caught in the melodies and the memories and the harmony, but
Nobody's on the string for you like me, but
I don't know how you do it
Could sell me a bridge that's burning while it's on fire and I walk through it
And still treat me wrong like that's what you're supposed to do
Loved me twice, you're oh for two
Damn, I do the most for you
I should use that bridge you sold me to get over you, but
If I played guitar the way you play games with my heart
I'd play you a fuckin' song that hit like Sylvester Stallone
I got you caught in the melodies and the memories and the harmony, but
Nobody's on the string for you like me and
If I could play the keys the way you play these games with me
I'd play you a symphony and love you instrumentally
'Cause I'm so caught in the melodies and the memories and the harmony, yeah
Nobody's on the string for you like me, but
I don't know how you do it
Could sell me a bridge in Brooklyn you don't own, even if I knew it
You still treat me wrong like that's what you're supposed to do
Loved me twice, you're oh for two
Damn, I do the most for you, I've fallen so low for you
Can I play this solo for you?
Nobody's on the string for you like me
