Lyrics

Checkmate
There's a space on my bedside table
Where our photo used to sit
It's been empty for a while now
But lately I've been feeling okay with it
Threw out all your letters
Blocked you on my phone
Getting kind of used to calling you
Someone I used to love
See it turns out I'm better off
And I'm not even sad about
Actually I'm glad you did me a favour love
For thinking I wasn't worth it no
Just a devil in disguise with a pretty face
A heart as cold as ice
Too cruel to ever be kind
You don't deserve a heart
That's as good as mine
So checkmate you lost this one babe
You played such a bitter little game
But I'm the one it saved
Thank you for the lessons and the pain
I promise il never fall in love again
Cause now I know just how it ends
Well there's a place that I was dying to turn to
Cause I knew I'd see you there
But loving you it had taught me better
That I should stay the hell away from it too
Crooked and callous
You taught me to be jealous
While I was at home you were tucked in someone else's arms
Tell me are you sober yet cause I'm over it love
Il keep you was a promise you were destined to break
Cause you burned every bridge you ever tried to make
You love to hate
You love to hurt
Well darling I think I've heard enough
So checkmate you lost this one babe
You played such a bitter little game
But I'm the one it saved
