DJ, play that song a little louder
I gotta, gotta get him out of my head
Gotta dance the pain away
Can't go to sleep just yet

My baby, he left me high and dry
Can't be the man for me, said he can't tell me why
He told me that he loves me but he's gotta be alone
He doesn't need me anymore, wants to do it on his own

Said he doesn't wanna run but we hold each other back
I loved him so hard, how'd we fall off track?

DJ, play that song a little louder
I gotta, gotta get him out of my head
Gotta dance the pain away
Can't go to sleep just yet

DJ, can't you play a little harder?
I gotta, gotta get farther out of the zone
I need the beat for release
I can't get it on my own

How could he say that he love me unconditionally
But still put so many rules and restrictions on me
Told me, 'No one's gonna love you as much as I do
But I can't be the man that you need me to'

He just couldn't hold my hand but he couldn't let me go
Too afraid that I found someone that I'd love most
So he keeps me in his trap while he walks out the gate
He knows he's gonna come back, he knows that it's too late

Save me, save me, this boy is tryin' to break me
I'm feelin' it, I'm feelin' it, I need the beat to take me
Save me, save me, this boy is tryin' to break me
I'm feelin' it, I'm feelin' it, I need the beat to take me

DJ, play that song a little louder
I gotta, gotta get him out of my head
Gotta dance the pain away
Can't go to sleep just yet

DJ, can't you play a little harder?
I gotta, gotta get farther out of the zone
I need the beat for release
I can't get it on my own
