Games - Triumvirat

A long gone friend of mine

Used to never play games at all

Just standing aside

Like a priest in a dancing hall

An older man I know

Has been gambling all his life

Winning nothing he could have owned

He lost his mind

You bet your life and play again

You’re trying anything

Right before you go insane

Pretend your loss is small

Pretend you didn’t lose at al]

Define your lies

Convince them all

There’s always gonna be a rise

After you fall

As long as you survive

That endless fall before you rise

Teachers teach in school

There is nothing that can’t be learned

And at home they praise the grades

You never earned

No one shows you how

To understand the major rule

You can drown in a public pool

You do, you do

You bet your life and put it in again

You’re trying anything

Right before you go insane

Pretend your loss is small

Pretend you didn’t lose at all

Explain your lies

Convince them all

There’s always gonna be a rise

After you fall

As long as they survive

That endless fall before you rise

A long gone friend of mine

Pulled a joker and lost his cool

But he lost his cool in style

The cool fool
