I could be jealous and grasping with greed I could pretend that I want something I don't need These are the things that go through my head But then, I could be an angel disguised as a man I could be the sun that shines in the midnight land If you would only stand in my corner Give that advantage to me Don't you feel something? You know what I'm thinking but I can't set it free We must Play this game, take the prize But not before you realize That win or lose, it's all the same Then maybe we can play this game I can't remember the reason I'm here Sometimes it seems like it's all out of habit or fear Sometimes I wish I could just go to sleep But then, I'll have a dream with a beautiful end I'll wake up and feel alive, then I'm off again If I could only keep your connection Give me whatever remains Then I might win you total liberation But I can't break these chains We must Play this game Let's pretend that we could never reach the end For it would be a crying shame If we can't learn to play this game Stand in my corner Give that advantage to me Stand in my corner Pull down a message with me The answer that evades our brains We only think we're wearing chains
