A Game Named Life Lyrics

• A game named life where fools make the rules
• And poets paint pictures with words that change nothing
• Survival of the fittest they say, are they sure?
• Or just the survival of those with the will to kill more?
• The heart that thinks itself purely, surely is not hungry?
• Because hungry knows too well, the world is fuckery
• And nature is indifferent to the suffering of infants
• That think ourselves growing human beings and something special
• But as fate would have it, I ain't buying the idea of fate
• It seems we shape every place that we grace with hate
• Depending which side of the fence or which epoch
• You die a slow death or be singing from the treetops
• Praise for the status quo, cus you're comfortable
• Those who lost out in this lottery, ha, fuck 'em all
• Nice with this roll of the dice, I'm quite proud and
• I don't know if we will ever roll another time round

• It's a game named life
• In a game named life
• In a game named life
• In a game named life
• In a game named life
• Where the dice decide where I go
• There I go, in a game named life
• I dream to be let go

• A game named life, where fools make the rules
• And poets paint pictures with words that change nothing
• Young child soldier, revolver not bluffing
• In a game that teaches children to kill but can't love them
• What is the journey of a bullet from the ground until we pull it?
• A piece of earth made blow holes in souls
• I'd like to know does a child choose in its mother's core or before as just a sperm to be born in war?
• Does another sperm choose greatness floating in his father's pleasure?
• Or does the game only begin when the umbilical's severed?
• Is that the reason babies born screaming?
• Because they know they left the spirit world
• To live here with no meaning among demons
• That see them as nothing more than chess pieces
• In a game named life where even the winners stop breathing
• And the whole thing is as tedious as a tale that is told twice
• We clone life but don't even own our own life

• It's a game named life
• In a game named life
• In a game named life
• In a game named life
• In a game named life
• Where the dice decide where I go
• There I go, in a game named life
• I dream to be let go

• Sacrifice, pain and strife
• The game named life is over
• Before we even know

• Life is a mirror always looking at you
• It's not what we say or think, we are just what we do
• With the time that is given it comes with no ribbon
• Because life is not a gift to everyone that's living
• Most of the moves are made before you took your first go
• Some got a huge head start before their first role
• So you could play with more skill than the other players
• They will still be head because the past generations
• Accumulated spaces so they could practice with acres
• Illuminated arrangements so they could manage retainers
• Are you foolish? They ain't racing we're chasing the pay slip
• So they have won before even the game starts unless we change it
• To another set of rules different from the fools
• But to do that we are going to have to use their tools
• And therein lies our greatest dilemma
• In this game named life, who's playing it better?

• It's a game named life
• In a game named life
• In a game named life
• In a game named life
• In a game named life
• Where the dice decide where I go
• There I go, in a game named life
• I dream to be let go
