I drove to work today
Nothing's changed
Drove by the home of Mr. Ray
He was acting strange
He held a gun up to his face
Then he blew out his brain
His wife closed the curtains and then
Nothing's changed

I'd like to forget sometimes
I'd like to feel safe
I'd like to escape

Every day I play
Every day, the game
The same game again
Every day's the same
Every day I play
Every day, the game
The same game again
Every day's the same

How do I escape? (How?)
How do I escape? (How?)
Every day I play
Every day, the game
The same game again
Every day's the same

I go to church to pray
Sunday
Drink milkshake with my steak
Catch my train
I walk home alone to watch my show
I hold my remote
I hold its blade against my vein
I watch the game

I'd like to forget sometimes
I'd like to feel safe
I'd like to escape

Every day I play
Every day, the game
The same game again
Every day's the same
Every day I play
Every day, the game
The same game again
Every day's the same

How do I escape? (How?)
How do I escape? (How?)
Every day I play
Every day, the game
The same game again
Every day's the same

How are you?
I'm not bad
How's your work?
How's your dad?
Are you well?
I guess so
I saw you in Tesco

It takes a life to wait
I'm not here today

Every day I play
The same game again
Every day I play
Every day, the game
The same game again
Every day's the same
Every day I play
Every day, the game
The same game again
Every day's the same

How do I escape?
Every day, the game
How do I escape?
Every day's the same
How do I escape?
Every day, the game
How do I escape?
Every day's the same
Every day I play
Every day, the game
The same game again
Every day's the same
