A game of scrabble, a triple word score. An interstate gig and its travel interactions. That feeling of being challenged, but knowing you're on top - just ahead of the game..... Or are you?
lyrics
I know what to say
It just won't go away
How long will it take
For things to go my way?
At dawn it became
A big crazy game
An endless game
Always the same
Reach for something and hold it close
You're holding nothing - an empty ghost
Cold illusions will show the way
Live to fight yet another day
I see you looking back and seeing something
I see you copping flack and feeling nothing
I see you looking back and seeing something
I see you looking back and saying, "It's a big crazy game...."
Then at some stage
You chose to engage
You turned the page
On the big stage
At dawn it became
A big crazy game
An endless game
Always the same...
Reach for something and hold it close
You're holding nothing - an empty ghost
Cold illusions will show the way
Live to figh t yet another day
I see you looking back and seeing something
I see you copping flack and feeling nothing
I see you looking back and seeing something
I see you looking back and saying, "It's a big crazy game...."
Reach for something and hold it close
You're holding nothing - an empty ghost
Cold illusions will show the way
Live to fight yet another day...
