Don't Tell Me

I've got an empty feeling Losing out so try to understand I played a thousand games of cards And never won a single hand And I know that I've been trying hard That's probably all I am They say you win and loose I hope I win some day It seems no matter what you try to do You step on someone's toes And it gets harder every day To recognize your friends from foes Well I'm not feeling sorry for myself But it might sound that way But friends are all I got To get me through each day I've followed every rule they set I made up lies I stayed in bed I tried to compromise instead Don't tell me Don't tell me why I never thought I'd try to win And loose it all some day I never thought I'd try to see I hope it's not too late I've followed every rule they set I made up lies I stayed in bed I tried to compromise instead Don't tell me Don't tell me Don't tell me Don't tell me why
