Never callinâЂ™, unanswered letters,
How you been, feelinâЂ™ better?
Never lookinâЂ™, but youâЂ™re hearinâЂ™,
Never speakinâЂ™, but youâЂ™re feeling
All the silence, and itâЂ™s wounding,
YouâЂ™re not healing, just concealing
Play the game, play the game
Chorus:
Oh brother to brother, all the blood runs red
DonâЂ™t roll over, donâЂ™t play dead
WeâЂ™re all livinâЂ™ on the razorâЂ™s edge
Oh brother to brother, all the blood runs ruby red
WeâЂ™re all victims of the razorâЂ™s edge
All the rules donâЂ™t mean a thing,
TheyâЂ™re wasting time,
The memâЂ™ries sting
Keep your image, plant that smile,
Answer questions, donâЂ™t let on
Make up stories all put on,
ThatâЂ™s your life, oh,
Your life is gone
(chorus)
You see youâЂ™re losing, yet you still try
The game just aâЂ™watches your life go by
YouâЂ™re playinâЂ™ well,
YouâЂ™re playinâЂ™ — why?
Oh, play the game
You see youâЂ™re losing, yet you still try
The game just aâЂ™watches your life go by
YouâЂ™re playinâЂ™ well,
Oh youâЂ™re playinâЂ™ the game
(chorus)
