Not On The Roster

I stand in the distance
and watch their game
of friday night hunting
it just stays the same
while the ones on the bench
are waiting for their time
they're looking for a starter
that they can replace
they’re scanning for a weakness
think of moves to make
they keep on playing a game
that is not mine

I've tried and I've tried
each time that I've tried
I'm watching for years
I still can’t play that game right
every time I try
I'm not on the roster
I'm not on the roster
no matter how hard I try
I'm not on the roster

I'm so sick and tired
of hearing these lies
so sick and tired
of watching fake smiles
lieing and faking
the game stays the same
I don't wanna do this
never again

I've tried and I've tried
each time that I've tried
I'm watching for years
I still can’t play that game right
every time I try
I'm not on the roster
I'm not on the roster
in the end I'm glad to say
I'm not on the roster
