lyrics

What's left over but feeling kinda hungry
What's left over but feeling kinda strange
What's left over but feeling like you got the ticket
Only just in time to miss the plane
What's left over but feeling like an idiot
What's left over but being told what to do
What's left over but staring into the hole in your soul
every evening when your work is through
What's left over but the algorithm
What's left over but what everybody knows
What's left over but clinging to the last person and
Place where you felt safe to grow
I get tired I get tired I get tired
Of everybody telling me the same
Saying the same old things
Over and over again

I gotta play the game
I gotta play the game
Yes I do
I gotta play the game
I gotta play the game
Yes I do
And it all goes by it's automatic
And it all goes by it's automatic
And it all goes by it's automatic
And it all goes by it's automatic
And it all goes by it's automatic
And it all goes by it's automatic
And it all goes by it's automatic
And it all goes by it's automatic

Well it draws you in
It ties you up
It wears you out
It turns you round
It casts you out
It throws you down
There's nothing left
And it abounds
It's everywhere
You've got no choice
It's everyone
And every voice
So everyone sounds the same

And I gotta play the game
I gotta play the game
Yes I do
I gotta play the game
I gotta play the game
Yes I do
And it all goes by it's automatic
And it all goes by it's automatic
And it all goes by it's automatic
And it all goes by it's automatic
And it all goes by it's automatic
And it all goes by it's automatic
And it all goes by it's automatic
And it all goes by it's automatic
