Trisha Yearwood - Victim Of The Game lyrics

It took a little time

But I guess you finally learned

That promises get broken

And bridges do get burned

You've been sitting through the ashes

Just trying to find a flame

Holding on to nothing

You're a victim of the game

You were standing way too close

To see it fall apart

There were things you couldn't hear

'Cause you were listening 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 getting to you

When you take to telling lies

You can try to fool your friends

But you can't look them in the eye

There ain't no standing 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

Staring in the mirror

At a victim of the game
