Lyrics
Imagine you were offered A brand new game to play A virtual reality so perfect You'd forget it wasn't day You'd forget you chose to enter You'd forget your actual name You'd live a thousand lifetimes And each one would feel the same - Absolutely real We are the players unknown Millions deep in the code Walking past each other On every single road Old friends from a place We can't remember soon Strangers with the same home Underneath the moon We live countless lives Returning here again Different bodies, different eras Different joy, different pain The game is deep, the game is long The game does not explain But every soul that's playing Chose to board this train Players unknown We forgot the rules Players unknown We forgot the school But something in the marrow Something in the bone Remembers we are many Though we walk alone How would you want to play it? Merely for the thrill? Or would you dig for something deeper Past the edge of skill? You can waste this run on comfort You can coast until the end Or you can tear the game apart And find out why they pressed send If we succeed in building such a game We have no reason to doubt That we are living in one now And that's what this is all about Life is a choice Enjoy your choice Life is a choice Enjoy your choice The note that started everything Still rings inside your ear You are the player unknown And the game is here You are the player unknown And the game is here And the game is here And the game is here (is here) And the game is - One note Sustained Open Present Enough
