Video Games Helped Me Survive
Through The Hardest Times
Gaming Kept Me AliveThrough The Darkest Nights

Gaming Let Me Live A Little Life In My Mind
That I Could Quit If I Didn′t Like It
But Wouldn't Have Known It
If I Didn′t Try Think Of It As A Different Type
Of Literature Cinema
The Vision Of A Different Eye
My Daily Life Changed
Since I've Gamified It Made It Mine
It Wouldn't Be The Same
If I′d Stayed Inside My Aling Mind

I′ve Been Failing Life
Unable To Find A Way To Hide It
This Pain Inside
Gets Greater Yet I'm Talking Pride In It
My Brain Is Trying Playing Mind Games
So I′m Playing My Games
To Stabilise And Save My Life

Game Let Me Keep Score
When Otherwise
I Wouldn't Be Able To Summarise
The Basic Reason Why I′m Even Here For

See A Door And Open It
See A Portal Go For It
See, Although You're Motionless
You Know To Click
And Open Up That Coconut

We Speak For Those That Haven′t Spoken Up
There's Loads Of Us
We Were Asleep But Now We've Woken Up

Games Helper Me Survive
Through The Hardest Times
Gaming Kept Me Alive
Through The Darkest Nights

Although On The Surface It Seemed
I Was Sitting Isolated
My Purpose Really Was To Socialise Outside My Cage
You See This Virtual World
Was The Environment I′d Find My Mates In
And Be Part Of Something Larger Than
The Size Of My Location

I Came To Judge Others
On Character Traits And Not Their Nation
Learnt Team Work, Communication And Co-operation
I Played Civilization With Other Civilizations
Traded Shots, Gifts And Information

Give And Take My Game Boy′s Old And Grey
But It's The Same Game Boy That I Hold Today
How Could I Have Sold It?
Faced The Pain Of Seeing It Thrown Away?
So Now It Sits By My Switch And Another Generation
Gaming Gave Me A Rich Extra-curricular Education

I Went To Places And Ages
School Never Bothered Teaching
The USSR To Egypt
And Even More Farther Reaching
I′ve Been Part Of The Crowds
In Revolutionary France
Fleetingly Felt What It Felt
To Give A Brand New Future A Chance
I Empathised With Other Points Of View
Living In A Bubble
What Else Was A Country Boy To Do?
In Fact, I Took My Surroundings For Granted
'Til My Eyes Fell Upon An Oblivion Sunset
Nearly Cried
Waited For The Dawn To Come
Morning Sun, Feel It Rise
Now I Appreciate Experiencing The Real Skies
I Come Outside
Summer Rain Splashes On The Paving
And I′m Like "These Graphics Are Amazing"

How Many Polygons Are In A Single Drop Of Liquid?
The Figure's Probably Bigger
Than Even Your God Predictied
The Laws Of Physics Are A Code
By Which We′re Not Restricted
'Cause We've Been Modding It
Since The First Bit Of Rock Was Lifted

Real Life And VR Life
Are Going To Be Like Spot The Difference
It′s Not Really A Surprise
We Realise We Got Addicted
Logging In Can Steal Time
Until We′ve Lost The Big Picture
Popular Opinions We See Online
Are Often Twisted

But Despite The Cost Of This
I'm Highly Optimstic
To Leap The Drop And Reach The Top
We′ve Got To Risk It
We've Got To Paint On The Wall Of The Cave
Unless We Want To Keep Replaying The Oldest Of Saves

You′re Not Holding The Fort Mate
You're Holding Your Fate
That′s Why I'll Take My Control To The Grave
So Until The Day My Face Is Like My Game Boy
Old And Grey
I Will Remember That I'm Never Too Old To Play
