Trying to think of how Ill say goodbye, God, dont let me cry
Ive lost the biggest contest of my life, I couldnt stand the lies
I called it love you called it fun, respect I never won
Back when the hurtin first begun shouldve kept my pride and run
Chorus
Now I dont want your shoulder to cry on
But if I was put to the test
I would write all the good times you gave me
In fifty words or less
Ive tried to play it by your rules, I was a fool
To lose the game means losing you, looks like I lose
