Game Over

Under the guise of a hapless performer, a hunger for juggling power and fame
Practice hunching your back, threw your hat into the three ring game
Snout stuck in a trough that's full of hidden agendas
Trotting out the lies to give us all peace of mind
As you served at the feet of elites who kept your pockets lined

It's the game that you've always wanted to play
A game is all it was to you
And as you'd twist and turn, did your ears burn?
Now noone's ever gonna believe you

Cast from a mould, but the world is a grown-in
Cut from a cloth, growing tattered and frayed
You were taught you're the best, Eton mess, I think you've had your day

It's the game that you've always wanted to play
A game is all it was to you
And as you'd twist and turn, your platform burned
Now no-one's ever gonna believe you

Did they give you trouble sleeping?
All the lies you were concealing?
Oh, it's such a sorry sight
They made you get on your bike
But you know that the rest are just the same

It's the game that you've always wanted to play
That's all it ever was to you
And as you'd twist and turn, the world got burned
But did you ever care anyway?
And when the crowds are all shouting your name
You mistook it for their love for you?
And as you'd twist and turn, your platform burned
Now one's ever gonna believe you
