DON'T PLAY WITH MY HEART

DON'T PLAY WITH MY HEART (EXTENDED MIX) ​[INTRO — 0:00–0:15] ​(Heavy, moody R&B bassline drops in slowly with a sharp, resonant snap snare) Yeah... If you want me... say it. If you don't... let me go. No more wasting time in the gray. ​[VERSE 1 — 0:15–0:42] ​One day you're calling... Next day you're gone, Singing sweet melodies That lead me right on. Tell me that you love me... Then you leave me wondering, Navigating static While my spirit's thundering. I don't need confusion... I don't need your games, Swapping out our truths For comfortable shame. If you want something real... Then say my name. ​[CHORUS — 0:42–1:12] ​Don't play with my heart... Don't pull me close then disappear. Don't tell me you love me... If you don't really mean it. Don't play with my heart... I'm giving you something real. If you want my love... Tell me how you feel. Stop running from the truth. ​[VERSE 2 — 1:12–1:42] ​I'm not asking forever... I'm asking for the truth, Laying down my cards And stripping off the proof. Tell me where we're going... Tell me what you want to do, Are we building something solid Or just passing through? I can handle honesty... Even when it hurts, Even when the silence Cuts right through the verse. But I can't keep guessing... What your silence means. ​[BRIDGE — 1:42–2:15] ​Choose me... Or let me walk. Love me... Or let me go. (brief, dramatic musical pause) But don't keep me waiting... In the middle anymore. I'm walking away From this revolving door. No more second-guessing, No more double-crossing lines. ​[GUITAR / SYNTH SOLO — 2:15–2:55] ​(A tense, sharp electric guitar solo intertwined with a driving, relentless R&B rhythm section) ​[FINAL CHORUS — 2:55–3:25] ​Don't play with my heart... Don't pull me close then disappear. Don't tell me you love me... If you don't really mean it. Don't play with my heart... I'm giving you something real. If you want my love... Tell me how you feel. ​[OUTRO — 3:25–3:49] ​Tell me... Tell me the truth... No more games... Don't play with my heart. Yeah... let it go. (Beat cuts out abruptly on a final vocal echo)
