[Verse 1]
You say you love me, but it never feels like the truth
Put no one else above me, so really what's the use?
You're always playing
I can't figure it out, it's all the same
Messing with my head again, you'd much rather play pretend
Can't figure it out, make it go away
[Chorus]
When I go out each time, it always hurts
Because you never think to put me first
And I would like to somehow know my worth
Cause I've been putting in that night work
When I go out each time, oh it's the worst
You play your games but I, I never learn
And I would like to sometimes know my worth
Cause I, I've been putting in that night work
[Verse 2]
I dance in circles, to the march of your beat
But by the end of the night, it feels incomplete
Why don't we change the rules?
'Cause you're always wanting more
I know you'll never be satisfied
One foot out the door
[Chorus]
When I go out each time, it always hurts
Because you never think to put me first
And I would like to somehow know my worth
Cause I've been putting in that night work
When I go out each time, oh it's the worst
You play your games but I, I never learn
And I would like to sometimes know my worth
Cause I, I've been putting in that night work
[Bridge]
You say it's true that the things I do
They always shine, under spotlights
If it's all a lie, then why even try?
The rules, they don't apply, there's nothing for me
If it's all a game, then why even play?
The rules, they always change, there's nothing for me
I can't figure it out, it's all the same
Messing my head again, you'd much rather play pretend
Can't figure it out, make it go away
[Chorus]
When I go out each time, it always hurts
Because you never think to put me first
And I would like to somehow know my worth
Cause I've been putting in that night work
When I go out each time, oh it's the worst
You play your games but I, I never learn
And I would like to sometimes know my worth
Cause I, I've been putting in that night work
You say you love me, but it never feels like the truth
Put no one else above me, so really what's the use?
You're always playing
I can't figure it out, it's all the same
Messing with my head again, you'd much rather play pretend
Can't figure it out, make it go away
[Chorus]
When I go out each time, it always hurts
Because you never think to put me first
And I would like to somehow know my worth
Cause I've been putting in that night work
When I go out each time, oh it's the worst
You play your games but I, I never learn
And I would like to sometimes know my worth
Cause I, I've been putting in that night work
[Verse 2]
I dance in circles, to the march of your beat
But by the end of the night, it feels incomplete
Why don't we change the rules?
'Cause you're always wanting more

When I go out each time, it always hurts
Because you never think to put me first

Cause I've been putting in that night work
When I go out each time, oh it's the worst
You play your games but I, I never learn
And I would like to sometimes know my worth
Cause I, I've been putting in that night work
