Lyrics to Shell Game

Watchin' you leave on a Sunday
To go put out some fires
Got you to give up your good name
All it ever made you was a liar
'Cause I know that you don't know how to be
The one who leaves
And I'm tired of the same fight
Been watching you get knocked down
Half of your life
And you always just say "that's what the money's for"
But I can't say it's alright
To go and sell another year
Off both our lives
So what was the money for?
Playing your days like a shell game
Closing your eyes and betting big
Got you to give up your good name
Next time I know you'll give 'em everything
'Cause I know that you don't know how to be
The one who leaves
And I'm tired of the same fight
Been watching you get knocked down
Half of your life
And you always just say "that's what the money's for"
But I can't say it's alright
To go and sell another year
Off both our lives
So what was the money for?
