YOU TRIED

You thought I didn't see it.

You thought I didn't know.

But sometimes the eyes say everything i need to know.

You told me I was everything,

said I was the one.

But instead you handed me a loaded gun.

Little things started changing,

I could feel it in the air.

Your words said one thing,

but your actions weren't there.

You started acting different,

started moving kinda strange.

I didn't need to ask you questions,

I could see the way you changed.

You thought I wasn't paying attention.

You thought I wouldn't find out.

But when the truth starts showing,

there ain't no way out.

You can tell me what you want,

you can paint whatever picture.

But I watch the way you move,

I don't need your apologies

when you're done running game.

You tried to play me for a damn fool,

girl, you're a waste of time.

You tried to run your game on me,

but the eyes never lie.

You tried to tell me I'm your man,

then I saw you with another guy.

You tried to play it cool,

but I saw right through.

You tried, you tried,

but I can read between the lines.

You tried, you tried,

you can't fool these eyes.

Now you're telling me I'm tripping,

like I'm seeing something wrong.

But I remember every detail,

and I've been watching all along.

You thought I'd take your excuses,

thought I'd fall for every lie.

Thought every sorry was a way back inside.

I don't need to chase you,

I don't need to make a scene.

When somebody shows you their true colors,

it's time to step aside.

You can keep the explanations,

keep the stories you designed.

I'm not fighting for somebody

who was already crossing lines.

You can tell me what you want,

you can paint whatever picture.

But I watch the way you move,

I don't need your apologies

when you're done running game.

You tried to play me for a damn fool,

girl, you're a waste of time.

You tried to run your game on me,

but the eyes never lie.

You tried to tell me I'm your man,

but then I saw you with another guy.

You tried to play it cool,

but I saw right through.

You tried, you tried,

but I can read between the lines.

You tried, you tried,

you can't fool these eyes.

I gave you my heart,

I gave you my trust,

I gave you my time.

You gave me lies,

You gave me heart break every single time.

you tried to hide it,

tried to keep me in the dark.

But you forgot one little thing—

I am the spark.

You tried…

You tried…

You tried to fool me.

But I saw it.

I felt it.

I all ready knew.

Body language never lies.

You tried to play me for a damn fool, girl, you're a waste of time. You tried to run your game on me, but the eyes never lie.

You tried to tell me I'm your man, but then I saw you with another guy. You tried to play it cool, but I saw right through.

You tried, you tried, but I can read between the lines.

You tried… You tried… But you can't fool these eyes.

You can change your story. You can't hide behind the lies.
