Lyrics
A Video Game
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
The day you fell out of love
Began like other days
Nothing new and nothing out of place
The edge that put you over
You can’t even recall
You’ve survived for quite a while now
But you don’t trust a soul
You trust in gravity
More than purity
You trust in secrecy
More than eternity
If you’re feeling good
Then something’s probably off
You never learned to smile when
You’re saying nothing’s wrong
I know you’re lying to me
Let me break down the wall
You trust in gravity
More than purity
You trust in secrecy
More than eternity
Forgive till you forget
But if you’re losing sleep
What’s left of your conscious
That you want to keep
You forgave it all and
Forgot yourself again
You trust in gravity
More than purity
You trust in secrecy
More than eternity
You said that I'm a cloud in
Your video game
I wish I was a hero
With something beautiful to say
