The Winner Takes It All

The other night I was watching MAMMA MIA! and this song stood out to me. Seems to be where I am now. This is just part of the lyrics that I feel I relate too.

"The Winner Takes It All" from MAMMA MIA!

I dont wanna talk
About the things weve gone through
Though its hurting me
Now its history

I've played all my cards
And thats what you've done too
Nothing more to say
No more ace to play

The winner takes it all
The loser standing small
Beside the victory
Thats her destiny

I was in your arms
Thinking I belonged there
I figured it made sense
Building me a fence

Building me a home
Thinking Id be strong there
But I was a fool
Playing by the rules

The gods may throw a dice
Their minds as cold as ice
And someone way down here
Loses someone dear

The winner takes it all
The loser has to fall
Its simple and its plain
Why should I complain?

Somewhere deep inside
You must know I miss you
But what can I say,
Rules must be obeyed

The judges will decide
The likes of me abide
Spectators of the show
Always staying low

The game is on again
A lover or a friend?
A big thing or a small
The winner takes it all

I dont wanna talk
Cause it makes me feel sad
And I understand
You've come to shake my hand

I apologize
If it makes you feel bad
Seeing me so tense
No self-confidence
But you see...

The winner takes it all!
The winner takes it all!
