Feeling blue at a place I can’t remember.
Full of empty chairs and empty thoughts.
You walked in and said all the right things at the right time.
Tricked me into believing you wanted to be mine.
You played me like a videogame.
You played me like a videogame.
You’ll get rid of me.
A secondhand love is all I’ll ever be.
When you get tired of me you’ll play it again.
Holding you through the winter in December.
What is fair and what is wrong.
You don’t seem to know where the line is, how to say no.
Tricked me into believing you wanted to be mine.
You played me like a videogame.
You played me like a videogame.
You’ll get rid of me.
A secondhand love is all I’ll ever be.
When you get tired of me you’ll play it again.
And I’ll give you that, you play well.
I’ll give you that, you lie well.
You played me like a videogame.
You played me like a videogame.
You’ll get rid of me.
A secondhand love is all I’ll ever be.
You played me like a videogame.
You played me like a videogame.
You played me like a videogame.
You played me like a videogame.
You’ll get rid of me.
A secondhand love is all I’ll ever be.
When you get tired of me, game over.
