The Game

Album: Echo And The Bunnymen Durasi: 3:51
[00:23.66]A sense of duty
[00:24.78]Was my one intention
[00:26.64]And an ugly beauty
[00:28.48]Was my own invention
[00:31.22]Pride a proud refusal
[00:34.35]And I refuse
[00:35.76]to need your approval
[00:38.41]Too many seekers
[00:40.15]Too few beacons
[00:41.85]But through the fog
[00:43.23]We'll keep on beaming
[00:45.28]Through the crying hours
[00:47.14]Of your glitter years
[00:49.09]All the living out
[00:50.52]Of your tinsel tears
[00:52.84]And the midnight trains
[00:54.68]I never made
[00:56.25]'Cause I'd already
[00:58.73]Played... the game
[01:02.74]🎵
[01:08.63]Everybody's
[01:09.58]Got their own good reason
[01:11.35]Why their favorite season
[01:13.36]Is their favorite season
[01:16.07]Winter winners
[01:17.02]And those summer sons
[01:18.61]Aren't good for everyone
[01:20.42]Aren't good for everyone
[01:23.44]Spring has sprung
[01:25.56]And autumn's well done
[01:28.52]So well done
[01:29.82]And it's a better thing
[01:32.13]That we do now
[01:33.51]Forgetting everything
[01:35.97]The whys and hows
[01:37.52]While you reminisce
[01:39.23]About the things you miss
[01:41.03]You won't be ready
[01:43.28]To kiss... goodbye
[01:48.31]🎵
[01:59.25]The earth is a world
[02:01.09]The world is a ball
[02:03.04]A ball in a game
[02:03.89]With no rules at all
[02:06.77]And just as I wonder
[02:08.38]At the beauty of it all
[02:10.68]You go and drop it
[02:13.11]And it breaks and falls
[02:14.64]I'll never understand
[02:16.47]Why you thought I would
[02:18.36]Need to be reassured
[02:20.26]And be understood
[02:22.21]When I always knew
[02:23.65]That your bad's my good
[02:25.83]And I was ready
[02:28.27]Ready... to be loved
[02:32.79]🎵
[02:44.21]Born under Mars
[02:47.75]With Jupiter rising
[02:51.58]Fallen from stars
[02:55.13]That lit my horizon
[02:59.49]I'll never understand
[03:01.25]Why you thought I would
[03:03.06]Need to be reassured
[03:04.91]And be understood
[03:07.08]When I always knew
[03:08.57]That your bad's my good
[03:10.69]And I was ready
[03:12.81]Ready... to be
[03:13.50]Through the crying hours
[03:16.42]Of your glitter years
[03:18.39]All the living out
[03:19.86]Of your tinsel tears
[03:22.02]And the midnight trains
[03:24.13]I never made
[03:25.55]'Cause I'd already
[03:27.80]Played
[03:29.51]It's a better thing
[03:31.54]That we do now
[03:32.90]Forgetting everything
[03:35.34]The whys and hows
[03:36.92]While you reminisce
[03:38.67]About the things you miss
[03:40.41]You won't be ready
[03:42.63]To kiss... goodbye
