Zero Sum Game Songtext
von Capstan

I′M ON BORROWED TIME FOR THE DAYS I'VE WASTED
SO I CHASE THEM DOWN WITH A GLASS OF HATRED
TRIED TO TASTE THE FAITH BUT I STUCK WITH THE SPIRITS
INGEST WITH HASTE BUT I′LL NEVER FEAR IT

So come one and come all
It's the greatest attraction your eyes have ever seen
WE'RE GOING TO MAKE A SCENE
Together we′ll watch mankind fall
ASLEEP AT THE WHEEL AND DRIVE THIS CIRCUS
THROUGH A GODDAM TREE

Step up and pick your poison, there′s so many to choose
Let's gamble with addiction I′m all in I can't lose

I think you′ve got your demons mixed up again
Fooled by the lifestyle and the sleight of hand
If nothing good ever lasts
Let's cheers to oblivion and pour another GLASS

We live in a world of underachievers
Content with being comfortable and INDIRECT
Yet never sober and intellect suffering, society′s hangover


So step up and pick your poison there's so many to choose
Let's gamble with addiction I′m all in I can′t lose

I think you've got your demons mixed up again
Fooled by the lifestyle and the sleight of hand
If nothing good ever lasts
Let′s cheers to oblivion and pour another glass

(Drink it down)
(Smoke it up)

It's a cycle of staying numb
It′s out of my hands the person I've become
These vices take a part before they take the whole
Before they take it all

Drink it down, smoke it up
Hide yourself in clouded lungs
Hazy eyes and empty cups...

BUT THIS ADDICTION DIGS UNDER MY SKIN
AND EVERY NOW AND THEN I STILL LET IT IN
JUST TO REVEL IN THE AFTERGLOW OF WHEN WE DANCED ON GRAVES OF BAD DECISIONS


It′s a cycle of staying numb
It's out of my hands the person I've become
These vices take a part before they take the whole
Before they take it all
