"Traitor (Roles Reversed)" lyrics

"Traitor (Roles Reversed)"

I check my phone, it says you aren't at home
So I study your steps like my whole life's depending on it
Usually on Tuesdays, you're in bed by eight
I feel my heart race, my gut says you're going to her place
You're at her place

I know how this'll go, yeah, it'll all be on me
You'll call me "insecure"
Say you've never met a woman more crazy
Look down and point your finger, say "We'll talk about this later"
Like you're doing me some favor
Yeah, you're the promise breaker
Master manipulator
But you'll call me the traitor

She's just a friend and I don't have to worry
'Cause she's not your type and you don't think she's pretty
Well, that's kind of mean to say
For someone you go out your way
For
Throw a party that you paid for
I'd put money that there's way more
But I won't ask. Why would I ask?

'Cause I know how this'll go
Yeah, it'll all be on me
You'll call me "insecure"
Say you've never met a woman more crazy
Look down and point your finger, say "We'll talk about this later"
Like you're doing me some favor
Yeah, you're the promise breaker
Master manipulator
But you'll call me the "traitor"

Yeah, I'll be the traitor

'Cause you got twisting and turning down to an art
Always playing that good-guy card
If roles reversed, you'd fall apart
You'd call me a liar
Probably set my house on fire
God, I'm just tired
All that I wanted was an ounce of honesty

It ain't that hard to answer back
To just tell me where you're at
And not spend so much of your damn time with a girl that isn't me

I know how this'll go
Yeah, it'll all be on me
You'll call me "insecure"
Say you've never met a woman more crazy
Look down and point your finger, say "We'll talk about this later"
Like you're doing me some favor
Yeah, you're the promise breaker
Master manipulator
But I'll be the traitor
