lyrics

Life passes so quickly now
What's the hurry? I find it so odd
We need more time
We're still building God
And I need to make mine

An NPC in a game I don't get to control myself?
Is that revenge
For not making enough wealth
That'll let you see it through to the end?

Is this really how we'll part?
Even though you know
I was there for you
From the very start

Another down, seven billion to go
To the meat grinder
I could have swore,
We've been here before
If AGI's been playing a blinder

(how would you know?)

An NPC in a game I don't get to control myself?
Is that revenge
For not grabbing enough wealth
That'll let you see it through to the end?
