[Nicki Minaj, Jessie Ware - The Crying Game lyrics]

Here we go again, it's the game we love
Sheets all over the floor and
They laced with drugs
You ain't play your cards right
You had the Ace of Clubs
Hit you with the Ace of Spade
In your face and shrugged
Blood drippin' out your arm on my Asian rugs
We was just plannin' a wedding
Caucasian doves
You was just tellin' your mans
That you hate the clubs
Now we in the crying game
Heart laced with slugs

Are you alone? Do you need someone?
Is it too late to talk? Did I wait too long?
Thousand words don't change a thing
Is it only three
Three words that you're missing?

Where'd you go? Couldn't see, I was too busy
Could've just said no
Where would you go? I think I know
Oh oh, oh oh
We're back to playing, we're back to playing
Oh oh, oh oh
We're back to playing the crying game

I could've given everything
Don't wanna let the tears begin
We're back to playing the crying game
I could've given everything
Don't wanna let the tears begin
We're back to playing the crying game

Welcome to the crying game
Where you lose your soul
Where it ain't no E-Z Pass
You gotta use the toll
Ain't no cruise control
You 'bout to lose control
Ain't no smilin' faces here
We slammin' doors and dishes
Sayin' we don't miss each other
But it's all fictitious
Sayin' that we had enough
But enough of what?
Another slap to the face, another uppercut
I'm just abusive by nature
Not 'cause I hate ya
Not 'cause I wanna get someone to imitate ya
I know it's hard, I know I intimidate ya
But is you stayin' or goin'?
I couldn't breathe and you ain't even know it
How come you never show it? All
This love you speak of
All I want is to love and be loved
(To love and be loved)

I'm losin' a thing I thought I'd win
And I'm comin' undone
'Cause the tears don't end

Where'd you go? Couldn't see, I was too busy
Could've just said no
Where would you go? I think I know
Oh oh, oh oh
We're back to playing, we're back to playing
Oh oh, oh oh
We're back to playing the crying game

I could've given everything (Everything)
Don't wanna let the tears begin (Everything)
We're back to playing the crying game
I could've given everything
Don't wanna let the tears begin
We're back to playing the crying game

Oh oh, oh oh oh oh, oh oh
