Victim Of The Game

Well, it took a little time 

But I guess you finally learned 

That promises get broken 

And bridges do get burned 

You've been siftin' 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 all fall apart 

And there were things you couldn't hear 

'Cause you were listenin' with your heart 

But you can't say I didn't warn you 

Now there's no one else to blame 

There's on 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 

And you can try to fool your friends 

But yo 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 



Oh, you know, when I look into your eyes 

I can really feel the pain 

Starin' in the mirror 

At a victim of the game
