endless running
always fighting
without a break
for staying awake

playing the game
after pressing play
nobody to blame
if it's not okay

after every ball
counting on
just don't fall
have to go on

losing a match
stand up and go
have to catch
if you know

don't miss the fight
don't lose the crown
have to stand tight
fooling the ground

everything to lose
when you're so close
to make a name
and win the game

a single switch
in your brain
like a witch
starting the rain

the balls pass on
my sheer nerves
like there are non

in the end
everything hurts
but you pretend
that everything works

close the play
win the game
or all in grey
silent acclaim
