Nights of temptation with an easy way out

Pixels in heaven, burning cathode ray hell

Mornings of echos with no exit in sight

Digitally harrowing my midi death knell

I swore I'd make a name for myself

I swore I'd never be just an ordinary

But somehow I missed my power-up unlock

And now the only bits I can see are primary

Give, no more take

Promises I'll make

Making things right

Clear is my sight. Lies!

Now, too many rounds I've played and it's game over

One final coin to insert, and no more continues

Paralyzed by indecision and indifference

Between the channel lights and the neon hues

I swore I'd burn my life onto the world

I swore I'd never settle for anything less

But somehow I just can't seem to stay away from

This arcade of a life and it's maniacal caress

Give, no more take

Promises I'll make

Making things right

Clear is my sight. Lies!

Hues...What has become of my wasted life?

Hues...When my soul's hands are behind me, tied?

Hues...The reflection is all that's left of me

Hues...While I pretend that I am still alive

Give, no more take

Promises I'll make

Making things right

Clear is my sight

My memories. Lies!

My piety. Lies!

My oath of love. Lies!

My sobriety? Lies!
