I Knew Your Game

I knew your game but still I played
I wanted to be led astray
Fuck the sinner not the saint
Scream your name as I'm betrayed

A lot of what is wrong in you is what I want in me
A snake-eyed Slytherin charm
Curse of a wolverine
I get palpitations bad vibrations
Still I just can't leave
In my land of make believe
To give is to receive

I knew your game but still I played
I wanted to be led astray
Fuck the sinner not the saint
Scream your name as I'm betrayed

I've got to get away from you and what you do to me
Damn those wandering eyes
They make me weak at the knees
My needs and fears fall on deaf ears
But I guess that's my disease
I can't look the other way
Cos' every time you stray
I'm still begging you to stay
I knew your game but still I played

I'm a moth you're the forest fire
I'm affection and you're desire
I tell myself I'm David you're Goliath
Even as I cast my sling aside
I'm a wretch dressed in bold attire
I'm bereft whereas you're inspired
You're a cheater and you're a liar
But you're everything that I require

I knew your game but still I played
I wanted to be led astray
Fuck the sinner not the saint
Scream your name as I'm betrayed

I knew your game but still I played (I knew your game but still I played)
I wanted to be led astray (I knew your game but still I played)
Fuck the sinner not the saint (I knew your game but still I played)
Scream your name as I'm betrayed
