surviving the game is the name of your fight
for the right to survive the shame it’s your blame
that you live take and give come and go
suck and blow love and hate it’s your fate
in your hands cruel romance
surviving the game is the name of your fight
for the right to survive the shame it’s your blame
that you live win and lose force and choose
rack and soothe bear and kill it’s your will
that your mind will be blind
surviving the game is the name of your fight
for the right to survive the shame it’s your blame
that you hope and despair extirpate and create
fighting wars against your source bloody fool
dance or die, don’t ask why
laugh or cry, I don’t mind
fall or fly, to the sky
or to hell, I feel well
born to live, not to fake
born to give, not only take
but take care and beware of yourself
