We All Play The Game

(album: Chase The Dragon - 1982)

Now you've found yourself
Can you tell me how you feel?
Well, you look so well
Everything seems new and real
Can you rise above
All the worldly cares you had?
All the foolish thoughts
Have they really left your head?

Yes, I'd like to see
If you really know for sure
Are you still convinced
What you had was less before?
Will it last for long?
You're obsessed by new ideas
There's a change in you
But you change 'most every year

Can you stand there and tell me now
It's not only a dream, it's better
It's a part you could play forever
We all play the game
We all play the game
And though we think again
Still it will be the same
We play the game
This foolish game

And the search goes on
A never-ending thirst unquenched
What you're looking for
Someone yet has to invent
Does it please you well?
Did you have to look so hard?
And you travel far
Though the answer's in your heart

Can you stand there and tell me now
It's not only a dream, it's better
It's a part you could play forever
We all play the game
We all play the game
And though we think again
Still it will be the same
We play the game
This foolish game

We all play the game
We all play the game
And though we think again
Still it will be the same
