Verse 1
I wish someone told me, wished I knew before
Not to trust the smile that opened up that door
I thought I was clever, thought I could see through
Now every little move just leads me back to you
Pre-Chorus
You whispered promises, thin as cigarette smoke
I traded truth for stories, every word you spoke
Now the lights go out and the map’s erased
I’m staring at the pieces you’ve misplaced
Chorus
I fell so deep into your game
Into your ways — I’m the one to blame
You played me like a fool, you played me ’cause you’re cruel
Now I’m drowning in your lies, can’t find the sky
Lost in your maze, can’t escape your maze
Verse 2
You smiled and rearranged the truth like a trick
Made tenderness a weapon, honey on a stick
I learned your language, learned to read your tone
But every answer led me further from my home
Pre-Chorus
You drew the lines I thought I’d never cross
Left me counting losses, tallying the cost
You close the curtains, leave no light to chase
I’m running in circles in this hollow place
Chorus
I fell so deep into your game
Into your ways — I’m the one to blame
You played me like a fool, you played me ’cause you’re cruel
Now I’m drowning in your lies, can’t find the sky
Lost in your maze, can’t escape your maze
Bridge
If I scream, will the walls answer back?
If I burn all the pictures, will I lose the track?
I’m breaking the compass you put in my hand
I’m learning the map, I’ll learn how to stand
You won’t keep me under, not this time
Final Chorus
I fell so deep into your game
I learned your rules and I learned your name
You played me like a fool, you thought I’d stay the same
But I’m rising from your lies — I’ll redefine the sky
No more your maze, I’m stepping out of your maze
Outro
I wished I’d known, I wished I’d seen
But I found myself and I broke the seam
You played your game — I played my part
Now I’m leaving with the pieces of my heart
