It took a little time
|
But I guess you finally learned
|
That promises get broken
|
And bridges do get burned
|
You've been sittin' through the ashes
|
Just tryin' to find a flame
|
Holdin' on to nothin'
|
You're a victim of the game
|
|
You were standin' way too close
|
To see it fall apart
|
There were things you couldn't hear
|
'Cause you were listenin' with your heart
|
You can't say I didn't warn you
|
Now there's no one else to blame
|
There's no one quite as blind
|
As a victim of the game
|
|
And it don't matter who you are
|
It treats everyone the same
|
All you need's a heart
|
To be a victim of the game
|
|
You know it's really gettin' to you
|
When you take to tellin' lies
|
You can try to fool your friends
|
But you can't look 'em in the eye
|
There ain't no standin' tall
|
In the shadow of the shame
|
When everybody knows
|
That you're a victim of the game
|
|
And it don't matter who you are
|
It treats everyone the same
|
All you need's a heart
|
To be a victim of the game
|
|
When I look into your eyes
|
I can really feel the pain
|
Starin' in the mirror
|
At a victim of the game
|
