Victim Of The Game

(albüm: Trisha Yearwood - 1991)

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 'em 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
