Play This Game - Utopia

I could be jealous and grasping with greed

I could pretend that I want something I don’t need

These are the things that go through my head

But then, I could be an angel disguised as a man

I could be the sun that shines in the midnight land

If you would only stand in my corner

Give that advantage to me

Don’t you feel something?

You know what I’m thinking but

I can’t set it free, we must

Play this game, take the prize

But not before you realize

That win or lose, it’s all the same

Then maybe we can play this game

I can’t remember the reason I’m here

Sometimes it seems like it’s all out of habit or fear

Sometimes I wish, I could just go to sleep

But then, I’ll have a dream with a beautiful end

I’ll wake up and feel alive, then I’m off again

If I could only keep your connection

Give me whatever remains

Then I might win you total liberation

But I can’t break these chains, we must

Play this game, let’s pretend

That we could never reach the end

For it would be a crying shame

If we can’t learn to play this game

Play this game, take the prize

But not before you realize

That win or lose, it’s all the same

Then maybe you can play this game

(Stand in my corner) Give that advantage to me

(Stand in my corner) Pull down a message with me

The answer that evades our brains

We only think we’re wearing chains

Stand in my corner

Won’t you stand in my corner

Stand in my corner

Play this game, take the prize

But not before you realize

That win or lose, it’s all the same

Then maybe you can play this game

Play this game, let’s pretend

That we could never reach the end

For it would be a crying shame

If we can’t learn to play this game

Play this game, take the prize

But not before you realize

That win or lose, it’s all the same…
