You say it was your sister but your full of shit 
And I I won't hear another word of it this time

Be true to me baby ill be true to you

You say your handcuffs are a little tight 
What's wrong now, man you used to love this game 

You should have listened when I told you to treat me right 
Now you'd be lucky if you make it through the night 
All this work for nothing baby can't you see 

Wrap your heart up in my fragile state of mind 
Didn't have to end this way but you told a lie 
And I don't wanna let you
