I never thought I'd see the day When all of this would melt away And leave me finally at peace. I used to think it was okay As long as you'd smile at me that way To forget I was on your leash. I wanted nothing but to please you Despite all you put me through I always wanted to work it out. But one day I heard the news and knew I would never be good enough for you Nor could anyone ever be, no doubt. Chorus: 'Cuz you're nothing but a player You must think you're very grand Coming home to my ign'rant affection After your one night stands. Yes, you're nothing but a player, And now you've been found out It's time to reap the hell you've sown You'll never know what love's about. So go ahead and try to plead You suddenly say I'm all you need But we both know you're full of shit-- People like you are easy to read If you judge not by words, but by deeds Never again will I be outwit. Do you dare to speak to me? Now my eyes are open, my soul is free. You empty lies can't turn my ears It's funny that you expect sympathy Even after you've let me see How little I've meant after all these years. |
It's taken me this long to understand but now I'm ready with a red-hot brand. Chorus: 'Cuz you're nothing but a player You don't deserve my time How you took my love for granted I just wish I'd seen the signs. Yes, you're nothing but a player Your fate you'll never flee The world will see what you are And not what you pretend to be. So go on and try to play your game But no one will never look at you the same. |
