Lyrics:
Never been the one to fold
And give up a game
But what’s the point in playing
When it all ends the same
Cause King plays for Queen
Queen plays for Keeps
Like the secrets up your sleeve
That you’re hiding
Shoulda cashed out
When I heard you were lying
I went all in but now the
Chips are down
I found you out
Called your bluD
You doubled down
Hearts like cards all on the table
If loves’s the game, bet on betrayal
Two faced
Well played
All fake
In spades
Odds always in your favor
Deal the dealer play the player
Two faced
Well played
High stakes
Heartbreak
Banked on beauty
But I shoulda bet on myself
I wish that I could
Put the blame on somebody else
But I showed my hand
You showed your plan to get away
Just like a thief in the night
And all you left me with was
Doubt and wondering why I was
Blind from the start
When you played our
Hearts like cards all on the table
If loves’s the game, bet on betrayal
Two faced
Well played
All fake
In spades
Odds always in your favor
Deal the dealer play the player
Two faced
Well played
High stakes
Heartbreak
Chips are down
I found you out
Called your bluD
You doubled down
Chips are down
I found you out
Called your bluD
You doubled down
Hearts like cards all on the table
If loves’s the game, bet on betrayal
Two faced
Well played
All fake
In spades
Odds always in your favor
Deal the dealer play the player Two faced
Well played
High stakes
Heartbreak
