Play the Victim Songtext
von The Word Alive

You′re the one who always falls apart
The one who plays the victim
Working on your latest tragedy
When you should try to fix it

You don't understand and you won′t listen

Why do we do what we do?
We do it to ourselves (we hurt the ones we love)
(The ones we love)
When, when will it end?
We do it to ourselves (we hurt the ones we love)
(The ones we love)

I'm not the one you should be worried about
You're so lost, you′re so lost
Why does nothing seem to get through to you?
These are your problems, there′s nothing I can do
(There's nothing I can do)

You don′t understand it and you won't listen


Why do we do what we do?
We do it to ourselves (we hurt the ones we love)
(The ones we love)
When, when will it end?
We do it to ourselves (to ourselves)
Whoa-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh

Knowing your tears are make-believe
Like snowflakes in the summer
It just doesn′t add up
It just doesn't add up
Like icicles in spring

Wake up!
Wake up!
And see the truth!
I′m not like you!

Why do we do what we do?
We do it to ourselves (we hurt the ones we love)
(The ones we love)
When, when will it end?
We do it to ourselves (we hurt the ones we love)
(The ones we love)


Why do we do what we do?
We do it to our-
Why do we do what we do?
We do it to ourselves
We do it to our-
