I remember when you said I was the prettiest girl you've ever seen (ever seen, ever seen)
Remember when you said that I was the girl of your dreams (of your dreams, of your dreams)
Remember when you said that for me, you would sacrifice everything, sacrifice everything
There ain't no sacrifice in your eyes, it's just empty
There ain't no righteousness in your disguise, you just use me
I wish I didn't care, yeah (care)
No sacrifice, it's so amazing
You fuckin' played me
For better, for worse
Fuckin' played me (for better, for worse)
For better, for worse
Remember when you said you wanted to give me a little kiss
Ain't it funny how we always seem to end up like this?
Always runnin' back to the same love 'cause it fits (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Try to fix this broken heart (fix)
One more time, I decided I don't want you around
That I didn't want it anymore
I walked out the door right to the other floor, no elevator
You can't get me high again
You can pretend to be my friend
I know you're not right in the head
Right in the head
There ain't no sacrifice in your eyes, it's just empty
There ain't no righteousness in your disguise, you just use me
I wish I didn't care, yeah (care)
No sacrifice, it's so amazing
You fuckin' played me
For better, for worse
Fuckin' played me (for better, for worse)
For better, for worse
Fuckin' played me (for better, for worse)
But I'm crazy 'bout you (for better, for worse)
But I ain't better without you (for better, for worse)
But I'm crazy 'bout you (for better, for worse)
Yeah, I can't live without you (for better, for worse)
Maybe you're better without me (for better, for worse)
No, I ain't better without you (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
You know I'm crazy 'bout you (oh)
But I can't live without you (for better, for worse)
Maybe you're better without me
But I ain't better without you
Blessing and a curse, better or for worse
We put in the work, we put in the work
You really love me
