lyrics

The game is always on
So come on, come on let's see who's won
A sweaty crowd, how suiting
They take after their idols

Our hero's the first
Golden shining and bright
Now allowed to flap his jaws
And his presence heals us all

Save for oh, the third one
Scattered and broke
He rots in the streets

The second one watches
From a six-story building
Why didn't he win? he asks
He asks

Of course there's a gun
And if you wonder
(how one man can kill)
We're all one,two,three
Obliged to do great things

Now back in the city
Our hero is dead
The word on everyone's lips
We've lost a great vessel

But it's all a game
And no one cares for long
Everyone, obliged to do great things
Goes back to doing so alone

We do place the blame
And if you wonder
(why we hunt each other)
We're all one,two,three
Obliged to do great things
Do great things

------------------------------------------------

On a night like this
The tree watches over us
A beacon
A reminder
Of what we should do

------------------------------------------------

Looking down at it all
From this place like this
I can see the people in their cars moving around
Going back the way they came this morning,
Or maybe yesterdays morning,
Maybe the next.
Witnessing this endless loop, I think to myself:
Maybe what i did, WAS the right thing
Because in all my life, i have only ever done the things, others have Asked of me
And today, despite how appalling what i did was,
It was the first time in years
That i felt aware of my own existence,
As the muzzle went of, I could feel the pillars that hold up this world, Tremble.
And in the brief flash that lit up the soon to be horrified faces I could Hear them whisper, on my behalf,
"Today, I'm a person, A man, A winner"
