Always wear my poker face,
Cards close to my heart,
Fold, before it's too late,
The game's about to start.
(tik tik tik)
I'm not a safe bet,
The house always wins,
You’re playing for your life,
You will have to go all in.
Hard to love, hard to fold,
Playing for keeps with hearts so cold.
Dealing you pain, it's just a game,
Tell you to leave, bluffing again.
didn't they tell you, you can't win.
why play?
when Loving me is a losing game.
I’ve dealt you a crooked hand,
You bet out of place,
You think you can win,
Love is not a race.
I laugh when I should cry,
Can you read what’s on my mind?
If we can figure out what we want,
Before we run out of time.
(tik tik tik)
I'm not a safe bet,
The house still wins,
You're risking everything,
I'm still not going all in.
Hard to love, hard to fold,
Playing for keeps with hearts so cold.
Dealing you pain, it's just a game,
Tell you to leave, bluffing again.
didn't they tell you, you can't win.
why play?
when Loving me is a losing game!
Bleeding chips, like bleeding hearts,
Stakes are high, with the ante up.
Been on a losing streak,
Keep taking bets,
In a game of regrets,
Stealing blinds just to check,
on the river we all cry.
maybe my run will be different this time
(tik tik tik)
It's the gamble I take,
I shuffle my fate,
While you raise the stakes.
Hard to love, hard to fold,
Playing for keeps with hearts so cold.
Dealing you pain, it's just a game,
Tell you to leave, bluffing again.
Didn't they tell you, you can't win?
Why play?
When loving me is a losing game!
Let the chips fall where they may,
And let all the cards be played.
I’ll match your stake, I’ll face the rake,
when Loving me is a losing game!
