lyrics

Intro Verse:
When it’s all said and done
When the war can’t be won
You’ve got nothing left to hide

Your pride has taken over
Those you trusted have left you behind

Verse:
Don’t dig yourself a hole
Over the things that you can't control
Give up now while you are ahead

Swallow your pride
Put your ego aside
Sometimes shit just don't work out

(prechorus)
Maybe it’s worthless
Trying to protect this
meaning less lie you have created

(chorus)
Nothing more than a pawn in your game
Just another step in your path to fame
When im gone ill be forgotten like the rest
Complain to me that you wish I was different

(horn break)

Verse:
Don’t listen to what they say
It’s all a game they’ve created
What’s the point if you aren't ahead

(prechorus)
Maybe it’s worthless
Trying to protect this
meaning less lie you have created
(In unison with second prechorus)
Dry me out for your best interests
Complain to me that you wish I was different
Leave me here to suffer like the rest
(chorus)
Nothing more than a pawn in your game
Just another step in your path to fame
When im gone ill be forgotten like the rest
Complain to me that you wish I was different
