Lyrics

Bilingual
I didn't wanna tell you this was always gonna be
Something of a long shot I wanted to believe
The house don't always win
And sometimes you can give into the feeling
I didn't wanna run if it was only out of fear
I was out of good ideas to get it right from here
But when I say I love you
Ain't that supposed to mean something
When you've got skin in the game
You're going to hurt somebody
You want your lover to change
You're going to hurt somebody
I didn't wanna tell you it felt like disrespect
Rolling over borders while you're claiming self defense
I'm just trying to keep my head
In the grip of a feeling
So l hold it to my chest
And I kiss it like a bible
My hands up as the water clears my neck
I don't know what happens next
But you stuttered out I love you
I really wanna love you but I'm scared to death
When you've got skin in the game
You're going to hurt somebody
You want your lover to change
You're going to hurt somebody
Ain't no escaping the pain
I'm sure you won't understand
Until you're stuck in the rain with your heart in my hand
When you've got skin in the game
You're going to hurt somebody
It was you and me
Falling out on 81st street
Furious at the future I wanted to achieve
I see you thought goodbye was for the best
'Cause while I slept you packed your things and left
Now my trust is broken I guess
When you've got skin in the game
You're going to hurt somebody
You want your lover to change
You're going to hurt somebody
Ain't no escaping the pain
I'm sure you won't understand
Until you're stuck in the rain with your heart in my hand
When you've got skin in the game
You're going to hurt somebody
