Dangerous Game Lyrics

Cover art for Dangerous Game lyrics by 3 Doors Down

It's obviously about a gunfight on the surface, and while it could symbolize life, I see it more as symbolizing pride. If someone challenges you to duel, you'd be a coward to back down. So you play this game, which isn't worth it because lives are on the line. In other words, don't do something stupid just to save face.
