thought you were my sunny day
thought you were my sunshine in the rain
when everything was cloudy in my life
didn't know that you were playin' a game
killing me softly inside
emotions blinded me from the light

i put it past you every time
that you would ever decide
to break your promises
you played yourself boy

you said you were forever down
instead you were down for yourself
i didn't get my back
you know you were wrong
forgetting what you meant to me
forgetting what we built together
what went around will come around before long

i put it past you every time
that you might be inclined
to break your word
but you played yourself boy

(Chorus)
you tried to play me and leave me lonely
you went out and cheated on me
i thought that you were down with me
you said i was your one and only
together exclusively
i thought that you were down with me
down with me

you thought you played me
but you only played yourself
when you left me
to lay down with someone else

i put it past you every time
that you would ever leave my side
but you went and broke your word
you played yourself boy

(Chorus) till fade
