Playing With Fire
I got burnt because I was playing with fire
Breaking the hearts of good girls to fulfil my desires
I wish I could go back and change how I acted
Because now I know there's more to a girl than getting her on a mattress
Meeting with three or four girls a day was nothing to me
Even if I liked them, I'd never let them know they were something to me
I'd use my charm to get their attention and make them laugh
One night stand with most of them, they didn't make it back
They'd ring and text me but I wouldn't reply
I was too damaged to care if they cried
Parents not around, I was using these girls as a bandage
I wish they didn't get to see me that damaged
I needed affection and love but I was unable to commit
Hid my feelings, but I blamed Cupid and said his arrow missed
I was unable to express myself as a teenager
I'd just tell these girls I'd see them in my dreams later
They all deserved better and I hope they found it
The tears I've cried are enough for me to drown with
Love came my way a few times, but I didn't know I was around it
You were all princesses, but I couldn't make the crown fit
I'm a better man now and am trying my best to give love a chance
I hope you can all forgive me so I can advance
As a teen I used girls for the love and affection my parents never gave
I hope me apologizing and writing this will show I deserves a clean slate
I got burnt because I was playing with fire
Breaking the hearts of good girls to fulfil my desires
I wish I could go back and change how I acted
Because now I know there's more to a girl than getting her on a mattress
