Lyrics
Well a body's just a body, 'til somebody lays it down
He'd meet her every Sunday on the colder side of town
They'd park the truck in darkness, making sure they were alone
And hold each other knowing they risked everything at home
He might as well have on a sign above his head
Each word written in, perfume soaked in sweat
His wife had given up asking where he'd been
She knew he'd only lie, and his lies were wearing thin
And he would act confused while she would sit alone and cry
And say the words "I love you", but never look her in the eye
Each way she looks, she sees her world is ending
She didn't have a say and doesn't wanna try again
She never thought she would have to start competing
In a game where there is nothing left to win
It's just a game with nothing left to win
She'd lie awake in bed and think about confronting him
To find out who it was that he's had growing on his skin
And if he'd hear her steady try to put their bed to use
He'd only get his will, she was too tired to refuse
Then she decided she couldn't take it anymore
She followed him one night to see who he'd been straying for
She watched him park his truck next to her best friend's car
She felt the final pieces breaking, it can offer shattered heart
She aimed and turned the headlights on and watched him try to hide
The midnight shadows couldn't wash the guilt out of their eyes
And in that light, she watched as her world ended
Crossed by her lover and betrayed by her best friend
She won't stick around to start competing
In a game where there is nothing left to win
It's just a game with nothing left to win
It's just a game nobody ever wins
