i agree with gabbitastic, most of the song makes sense with the idea that she has a crush. playing it like a game is them flirting but nothing ever happens; it makes no sense that all he's doing is looking when they could be together; obviously, "let's be more than this"; and the one "two" she was counting on was.. them as a couple? maybe? hmm?
but i can't figure out who "they" are. i thought maybe it's about gossip, and "they taped over your mouth / scribbled out the truth with their lies / your little spies" might be like the people talking behind their backs about their little crush, and every time someone tells someone else, they warp the truth with their lies.
it's a stretch but it's really all i can think of!
I think you are right ....i think "They" are his friends the popular ones .. he likes her but he doesnt want to lose his status with is friends ..
"If you wanna play it like a game - i think this means he is flirting but e does nnothing about it because he feels his friends dont think she is good enough
They taped over your mouth
Scribbled out the truth with their lies
You little spies - covincing him he doesnt like her ...which is lies
