Screen is glowing..." "Midnight. Unknown number." Who is this?" Let's go. Staring at the screen, heart racing in the dark One sentence left a permanent, blazing mark I grab my coat, step out into the rain Driving to his place, numb to the sudden pain Parked outside his door, knocking with a shaking hand Ready to demand where we officially stand The door swings wide, the hallway light hits his face I step inside his room, frozen in time and space He looks me in the eyes, says 'I know your game' 'I knew your little rules, knew you’d never be the same' It was him all along, playing the long, cold trick He made the hunter crawl, made the clock slowly tick The mystery is solved, the puzzle pieces align He’s the one who broke me, wrote 'Your place or mine?' He pours two drinks, smiles with a quiet grace 'You thought you ran the city, thought you held the crown' 'I had to break your ego just to bring you down' A whole month of silence was a calculated test To see if I would fold, to see if I’d confess My rules are totally shattered, scattered on his floor I used to walk away, now I’m begging him for more He looks me in the eyes, says 'I know your game' 'I knew your little rules, knew you’d never be the same' It was him all along, playing the long, cold trick He made the hunter crawl, made the clock slowly tick The mystery is solved, the puzzle pieces align He’s the one who broke me, wrote 'Your place or mine?' Now the tables are turned, the player got played By the cleanest trap that was ever laid He steps up close, whispers right in my ear 'Are you ready for real love, or is that your biggest fear?' Oh, the ultimate punch has hit me once again I’m no longer playing around with other men He looks me in the eyes, says, 'I know your game' 'I knew your little rules, knew you’d never be the same' He looks me in the eyes, says, 'I know your game' 'I knew your little rules, knew you’d never be the same' It was him all along, playing the long, cold trick He made the hunter crawl, made the clock slowly tick The mystery is solved, the puzzle pieces align He’s the one who broke me, wrote 'Your place or mine?'
