I know a girl who's a little more lucky
Than the rest of us, puckered up and
Said that she feels a little down
They've made her happy now
Better than you by a little bit
Suffers like the rest of us
Better off than most of us
But we've beat her down
Her pills and bottles save her now
I know a girl who was hurt
And the world has made her numb
She was clean, just a little too mean
And all she ever does is run
Talk behind your back and Break your heart for fun
And I met a boy, told me he was mine
Told a couple lies, said it was alright
'Cause I told him I was gonna die
It's getting old
Washed it down with alcohol
'Cause life is a game
You either break or break the chains
You tell the people, hold me up
They're all just stepping stones to fame
And you're all to blame
'Cause you were here before it came
You either change or stay the same
Or pills and bottles make your name
'Cause life is a game
'Cause life is a game
Oh, I know a boy, got a couple dark secrets
But his friends couldn't keep 'em
And he's too proud to listen
He changes his feelings, wrong opinions
Quicker than I change my mind
And I know a girl who's been
Burdened by the big bad world
She's alone with his body
She's at home without a soul
Coming round, breaking down
She isn't dreaming now
'Cause life is a game
You either break or break the chains
You tell the people, hold me up
They're all just stepping stones to fame
And you're all to blame
'Cause you were here before it came
You either change or stay the same
Or pills and bottles make your name
You aren't him and she isn't her
You're all gonna leave me
You're all gonna hurt
You're not gonna love me
The way that you say that you do
Oh, baby, you aren't real
Get out of my head
Oh, this only ends with
One of us dead, whoa
How can you blame me
For letting you save me
Oh, I'm feeling down
'Cause life is a game
You either break or break the chains
You tell the people, hold me up
They're all just stepping stones to fame
And you're all to blame
'Cause you were here before it came
You either change or stay the same
Or pills and bottles make your name, oh
'Cause life is a game
You either break or break the chains
You tell the people, hold me up
They're all just stepping stones to fame, oh
And you're all to blame
'Cause you were here before it came
You either change or stay the same
Or pills and bottles make your name
'Cause life is a game
