by Mel Maryns - I Was a Bet
This song is about a person who felt led on and used by someone they thought was different. The singer thought the relationship was real but later found out it was all a bet and just a show. Despite the regret expressed by the other person, the singer can't forget what happened and feels used. The chorus emphasizes that the singer was just a bet all along and questions the other person's actions and motives.
Verse 1
I saw you standing
there looking so innocent
thought you’d be different
this was no accident
you knew me ‘fore we met
how dare you play pretend?
Pre Chorus
treated me like a fool
so casually cruel
you must think that you’re so cool
little did I know
it was all for show
did you think I wouldn’t know?
Chorus
hold on, don’t go
don’t you dare turn off your phone
hold on, what’s wrong?
you fear I might write a song?
you led me on
well grab some popcorn
what will you play now that I’m gone?
I was a bet all along
I was a bet all along
a bet all along
Chorus
It started at the party
you knew I was nobody
what a mentality
you asked what my name is
I said it’s Leaney
but you knew already
Pre Chorus
treated me like a fool
so casually cruel
you must think that you’re so cool
how could I know
it was all for show?
thank god dean exposed
Chorus
hold on, don’t go
don’t you dare turn off your phone
hold on, what’s wrong?
you fear I might write a song?
you led me on well grab some popcorn
what will you play now that I’m gone?
I was a bet all along
I was a bet all along
Bridge
you say you regret
you want me back
but I can’t forget
that I was a bet
Chorus
I was a bet all along
I was a bet all along
I was a bet all along
