Cady Groves - Crying Game

Woke up to snow
It's Christmas again
She's still not home
Got thrown in the pin
And I'm six years old
Sitting here thinking
Why am I always alone

So, I watch my momma
From the back of the van
As she drove along
And having seven kids
My starving heart
But daddy couldn't stay out of the bar

It's a crying game
Seeing him in prison
On Christmas day
Twenty years later
Still such a shame
To have a broken heart
At such a young age
But now it's all the same
It's a crying game

I missed the call
And woke up to find
My brother was gone
That's when I lost my mind
At eighteen years old
Wondering how life could be so cold
But we came together
Like never before
All my brothers and sisters
Kept momma at shore
Til we lost another
It's hard to know just what to think no more

It's a crying game
To have to put my brothers
In their graves
Life ain't perfect
But it's such a shame
They left behind the stories that they never made
Now it's all the same
It's a crying game

Living, loving gets me through the pain
Don't take for granted it's all okay
Anywhere I'm going it's crazy to think that
There's a million other people out there playing
Crying game
There's no winning
And no one to blame
Life is fragile
And can slip away
And let me tell you
When it does it's such a shame
But it's all the same
It's a crying game
