Mind games
Oh, I'm playing myself in mind games
You said, "Tell it like it is," and I did
But now I think I told it wrong

Am I building you up in my head? (I don't think so)
Am I just remembering the good parts? (I don't think so)

I know it's not fair
But I really need you here
I didn't mean what I said
Or maybe I'm just scared, mmm
Of being alone
Of being alone, mmm
Of being alone

Memories are so biased
We only want people to see us smiling
And edit out imperfections
So looking back, I wanna turn around, mmm, yeah

But is my rearview mirror clean? (I don't think so)
And can you blame me for feeling this way? (I don't think so)

I know it's not fair
But I really need you here
I didn't mean what I said
Or maybe I'm just scared, mmm
Of being alone
Of being alone, mmm
Of being alone

Mind Games, mind games, mind games, mind games
I'm playing myself in mind games
