Skin in the Game
Ava MaxLyrics of Skin in the Game by Ava Max
Intro
Ah
Verse
Oh, baby, your tongue set a fire
I was doomed when you kissed me in the kitchen
Your lips (your lips) tasted like (tasted like)
Dark red wine and reckless decisions
Pre-chorus
Satin sheets, Christian Dior
All our clothes fell down to the floor
Yeah, that night was two years ago (two years ago)
And I′m still sleepin' in this bed we made
Of fuckin′ and fightin' each day
I try to leave, but I just stay
Chorus
'Cause I′ve got (ah) skin in the game
You touch me, and lettin′ go just goes down the drain
I've got (ah) skin in the game
I try to love myself, but it′s not the same (ooh)
I'm not gonna play anymore
Screamin′, "I hate you, walk away"
I'm not gonna wait anymore
Every time I think that I won′t cave
I end up (ah) back at your place
'Cause I've got skin in the game
Verse
Yeah, baby, sometimes (sometimes) I drive (I drive)
And I drive (drive) ′til I almost cross the line
Pre-chorus
Of dancin′ with somebody else
I kiss his lips and never tell
But he won't feel the way you felt
No, I can′t help it
Chorus
I've got (ah) skin in the game (oh)
You touch me, and lettin′ go just goes down the drain
I've got (ah) skin in the game
I try to love myself, but it′s not the same (ooh)
I'm not gonna play anymore (oh yeah)
Screamin', "I hate you, walk away"
I′m not gonna wait anymore (oh no)
Every time I think that I won′t cave
I end up (ah) back at your place
'Cause I′ve got skin in the game
Outro
Ooh, I've got (ooh), oh, I′ve got (ah)
Skin in the game
Ooh, I've got (ooh), oh, I′ve got (ah)
