[Verse 1]
I never asked for this
Still here with the mess
Sad in my chest
When I give you my best
You wore that smile
Like a lock on my door
Now I see the shape
Of the lie you were for
Took my trust
Turned it thin as glass
Held my hand
Then you pulled it back
I kept saying sorry
Like it fixed what you broke
But your sweet little words
Were a rope and a choke
[Pre-Chorus]
I see the script now
I see the switch
You kiss then cut
Yeah, that’s the trick
You say “come close”
Then you change the rules
Love gets bruised
By the cruelest fools
[Chorus]
Sick trick, sick trick
You twisted my heart
Sick trick, sick trick
Tore trust apart
I loved you hard
You played me wrong
Sick trick, sick trick
I’m gone, I’m gone
(Sick trick)
[Verse 2]
You don’t get to call it fate
When you move like a scam
Make me doubt my own eyes
Then pretend that I’m damned
I was loyal, I was open
You were hiding a knife
Every little “my bad”
Was a bite at my life
Now I keep my distance
From the poison you sell
Your apology hit
But it missed me as well
You wanted control
I wanted home
You wanted a puppet
I wanted my soul
[Pre-Chorus]
I see the script now
I see the switch
You kiss then cut
Yeah, that’s the trick
You say “come close”
Then you change the rules
Love gets bruised
By the cruelest fools
[Chorus]
Sick trick, sick trick
You twisted my heart
Sick trick, sick trick
Tore trust apart
I loved you hard
You played me wrong
Sick trick, sick trick
I’m gone, I’m gone
(Sick trick)
[Bridge]
Evil wears perfume
And a soft-spoken face
Leaves you on empty
Then blames your pain
I don’t hate you
I just see it clear
What you fed me was fear
Dressed up as dear
[Final Chorus]
Sick trick, sick trick
You twisted my heart
Sick trick, sick trick
Tore trust apart
I loved you hard
You played me wrong
Sick trick, sick trick
I’m gone, I’m gone
(Sick trick, sick trick)
