Cause they'd rather be all alone. (Bah-dah-bop-bah)
Cause they're tired of fighting the pain of trying to stay sane
In a house with a man who can't see life is not a game.

Chorus 3:
In this broken home, life is not a game. In this broken home. (Life is not a game)
Oh, when will you realize that you are not alone in the life that you lead it's not about what you need.

Chorus 4:
This broken home. (Bah-dah-bop-bah)
You need this broken home. (Bah-dah-bop-bah)
But they're tired of fighting the pain of trying to stay sane
In a house with a man who can't see life is not a game.

Oh no. (Oh no.) Life is not a game.
