Tell us how you really feel, Demi. Demi Lovato is not holding back in a feisty track off her new album, Tell Me You Love Me. "Games" is an anthem for all the scorned daters out there, who have had it up to here with the tired tradition of being played. Demi has a message for all you game-players out there: Two can play at that. Demi Lovato's "Games" lyrics pretty much seem to act as a cautionary tale for the shady. See for yourself in the lyrics below:

Text on 'read', and it ain't no accident Boy, I ain't gon' ask again, now you got me in my head Waiting by the phone at night, that's shit that I don't do And I just can't explain what's happening

Sending all these messages alone at night, on Patron at night In the morning, different story, ain't that right

I don't know why you play these games Come on, now, say what you wanna say Careful when you play these games You might find out the hard way that two can play Yeah, two can play Yeah, two can play Yeah, two can play these games And you know it's driving me insane Careful when you play these games You might find out the hard way that two can play Yeah, two can play Yeah, two can play Yeah, two can play, yeah I date men, but you're acting like a little boy And no, I ain't your little toy Honey, I don't need new friends Figure out just what you want, and what the hell you're waiting on Before you hit my phone again

Sending all these messages alone at night, Patron at night In the morning, different story, ain't that right?

I don't know why you play these games C'mon, now, say what you wanna say Careful when you play these games You might find out the hard way that two can play Yeah, two can play Yeah, two can play Yeah, play these games And you know it's driving me insane Careful when you play these games You might find out the hard way that two can play Yeah, two can play Yeah, two can play Yeah, two can play, yeah

Now, I know you're used to winning And I'm tired of keeping score But if you're ready to quit it, maybe I can be yours

I don't know why you play these games C'mon, now, say what you wanna say Careful when you play these games You might find out the hard way that two can play Yeah, two can play Yeah, two can play Yeah, play these games And you know it's driving me insane Careful when you play these games You might find out the hard way that two can play Yeah, two can play Yeah, two can play Yeah, two can play, yeah

Dang. And we thought "Sorry Not Sorry" meant business.

Ever been left with a "text on read" before? This fiery song is like a musical representation of a meme. We are all Demi Lovato.

Demi's new album is possibly her most fearless and vulnerable to date. “I'm single, and I'm 25 years old, and I'm living by myself, and so I wanted to write about it,” she told USA today. “Some of the perks include not taking life, or anything, too seriously, and just having fun. And then sometimes it gets lonely." And sometimes that means dealing with the inevitable games that come with dating.

Clearly Demi isn't here for the drama, so just don't mess with her, OK? Just listen to her fierce and unrestrained new music and you'll get it. Game-players need not apply.
