Fair Game Lyrics

This song is about a woman who is falling for a man she can’t game.

She’s never played a fair game, because she’s smarter. She says she wants to play a fair game, though.

The part about ‘take the reins, Watch me squirm, you are just what I need.’ She’s saying the idea of being with someone who is her match, her equal, is terrifying. She can’t use him, can’t treat him like a toy. And though the thought of someone having her number, maybe even being smarter than her, is frightening, she thinks that’s what’s been missing. That’s what she really needs.

Sia girl, I hear ya. There’s nothing for terrifying than being totally vulnerable to someone else, especially when you’ve always run the show and had control. But that’s love, right?

@Spyron I totally agree with you, I think it is the perfect interpretation.
