The Meaning of Life
He read it in a magazine
A vision of the future obscene
Soon enough when the world begins resembling
It's all too late
As if once he thought of it
Somebody was bound to realise it
Don't you know when you open up Pandora's box
There's no closing it?
It's right in front of me
The life I was gonna lead
There isn't much hope for it now
Forget about the meaning of life
I just want to make it through the night
I just want to survive
Now war's not fought for victory
It's just a process to destabilise things
Just a means to an end while they play that lonely game
Behind closed doors
Now nobody reads the magazines
And the shops are filled with vending machines
I wander through near empty streets
Where no one speaks
It's all 2D
And there's no complexity
Just the right and the wrong of things
So it isn't hard to obey
Forget about the meaning of life
I just want to make it through the night
I just want to survive
Forget about the meaning of life
I wish that I could see it all in black and white
I just want to survive
Forget about the meaning of life
I just want to make it through the night
I just want to survive
Forget about the meaning of life
I wish that I could make you feel alive
But it's too late to try, try, try
A vision of the future obscene
Soon enough when the world begins resembling
It's all too late
As if once he thought of it
Somebody was bound to realise it
Don't you know when you open up Pandora's box
There's no closing it?
It's right in front of me
The life I was gonna lead
There isn't much hope for it now
Forget about the meaning of life
I just want to make it through the night
I just want to survive
Now war's not fought for victory
It's just a process to destabilise things
Just a means to an end while they play that lonely game
Behind closed doors
Now nobody reads the magazines
And the shops are filled with vending machines
I wander through near empty streets
Where no one speaks
It's all 2D
And there's no complexity
Just the right and the wrong of things
So it isn't hard to obey
Forget about the meaning of life
I just want to make it through the night
I just want to survive
Forget about the meaning of life
I wish that I could see it all in black and white
I just want to survive
Forget about the meaning of life
I just want to make it through the night
I just want to survive
Forget about the meaning of life
I wish that I could make you feel alive
But it's too late to try, try, try
