It was about midnight or so when it hit you
You've been playing their game so long
you forgot what you were playing for
You don't believe in their rules
and you don't think the game's very fair
So why are you still playing?
Oh, you try and convince yourself
you're only playing their game
for all the right reasons
That you're only coming to power given to you by their game
in order to change those unfair advantages they have.
Only once you're there
you won't change the rules
You'll finally believe in them
-in the game.
And once you do
There will be no turning back.
You'll play the game
FOREVER.
