Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] You say you're tired of keeping score But you're still hiding behind that grin Acting like we're back at fourteen Pushing every button on my skin [Pre-Chorus] You turn your phone off Then you stare Wait for me to break and call You spin the bottle with my heart Laugh it off like it’s nothing at all (mm) [Chorus] Why you always playing these childish games? Tagging my heart Then you run away Pull me in close just to dodge the blame You say you care But it feels the same Why you always playing these childish games? Promise me change Then you rearrange I’m standing here But you never stay Why you always playing these childish games? [Verse 2] You leave your sweater on my chair Say “keep it I’ll be back real soon” Then you disappear for three weeks Till you need someone to share the moon [Pre-Chorus] You spin your stories Sugar sweet I taste the truth beneath the glaze You draw a circle in the sand Step across Then you walk away (hey) [Chorus] Why you always playing these childish games? Tagging my heart Then you run away Pull me in close just to dodge the blame You say you care But it feels the same Why you always playing these childish games? Promise me change Then you rearrange I’m standing here But you never stay Why you always playing these childish games? [Bridge] I’m too old for hide and seek Tired eyes Losing sleep If you want me Say my name Or let me go Don’t bend the frame I can’t be your in-between Halfway love in faded jeans Either grow with me Or let me fade [Chorus] Why you always playing these childish games? Tagging my heart Then you run away Pull me in close just to dodge the blame You say you care But it feels the same Why you always playing these childish games? Promise me change Then you rearrange I’m standing here But you never stay Why you always playing these childish games?

pop, Slow, shimmering future bass with warm detuned synths and deep sidechained pads; intimate male vocals up close in the verse, then a lift into a wider, airy chorus. Soft filtered keys carry the chords, gentle vocal chops after the hook. Subby low end, sparse percussion that blooms on each drop; subtle backing harmonies on the title line for a sticky pop feel., slow
