Stuck in the mainframe
No way to escape
Would I even want to
If I saw the day?
Founders of new games
They beg you to play
What if I don't want to?
I'm your ticket to fame
Lost in the mainframe
Allegiant to change
Our providence endless
Our wishes estranged
Players of new games
They live in acclaim
They answer to no one
Except those they can name
And it's time to take it
Time you learned
Your breath and soul
Must be earned
You want to make it
Oh you'll see
You can't be them-
You'll never be.
So I become the person I was meant to be
We unravel slowly, give your hand to me
And become the person you were meant to be
Oh become the person I want you to be
Wired into nothing, pressed against the wall
Keep your secrets til they're all you can recall
Let your mind collapse until you're at default
It's the only way that you'll see through it all
The cost of redemption
Is a heavy price to pay
I hold my intention
The hope to create a better SAVE
You've caught my attention
And now your life is on display
Divine intervention
You all would do well to obey
I wish I could take it
Wish I'd learn
But my happy ending
Can be earned
The cost of life
Is worlds to burn
But I'm past the point
Of no return.
So I become the person I was meant to be
We unravel slowly, give your hand to me
And become the person you were meant to be
Oh become the person I want you to be
Wired into nothing, pressed against the wall
Keep your secrets til they're all you can recall
Let your mind collapse until you're at default
It's the only way that you'll see through it all
I become the person I should never be
Linked in everlasting static tragedy
They'll become the people I need them to be
It's the only way that I can set them free
