I may not have the best six pack, the most clever sense of humor, the cutest face, or the best swagger. But I guarantee you this; no one can take care of you the way I can...

It's All a Game

It's all the same
This vacant search for fame
And a reason to bear the name
Because of our mad game
We hope to leave the outcasts lame
Not realizing all the pain
The severity is insane
I'm barely left sane
The true test is whether you're real
So real that you can appeal to those who feel
Watch as that drive in your heart begins to peel
And the plight of the lost get caught under the wheel
It suddenly won't budge as you begin to care
As you the see the marks are more than just tears
The competitive machine is fed by consumer culture
And the need to become remembered as sculpture
Once your sculpted, what's the next prize
I may be deceived but I see nothing with my eyes
Perhaps I'm blinded, but it' the only way I see
At least when I look in the mirror I feel me

It's all a game
The search for fame and a stake for the name
My life's bane is to insure I'm not lame
That seems rather tame, I've got my own game
To let everyone know I'm the exact same

This quest for metal and prestige
And for people to call me liege
Is never ending and stress inducing
But watch as I start introducing
The new apathetic side of me
He emerges in my dreams
When life seems serene
I try my best to find and glean
What he can teach about life
And how to reduce this strife
Society is free to get what it needs
And the new decrees absolve all fees
Living in a world of tolerance and peace
Where pain is silenced and violence ceased
My eye resist the urge to emerge from slumber
My soul is not even close to becoming encumbered
As I awake, I'm left confused and abused
And my soul is left broken, shattered, and bruised

It's all a game
The search for fame and a stake for the name
My life's bane is to insure I'm not lame
That seems rather tame, I've got my own game
To let everyone know I'm the exact same

This sadness and depression has left me breathless
Wondering how I'm supposed to bandage and stretch this
The ultimate loss is the nonacceptance of self
But watch as I eagerly place myself on the shelf

It's all a game
The search for fame and a stake for the name
My life's bane is to insure I'm not lame
That seems rather tame, I've got my own game
To let everyone know I'm the exact same
