Lyrics

The room is all aglow with lights
And frantic victory chirps
This night decides the laurel's home
'Til challengers usurp
The children gather round the box
And sway amid a trance
They watch the blipping on the screen
As pixels dive and dance
Beware, I live, beware, I live
I hunger for your thoughts
Beware, I live, beware, I live
I'll root you to this spot
There's something wrong with what it does
It's not a thing for fun
And no one's heard of this machine
Or knows how it is won
The owner says they wheeled it in
His memory's a blur
Its title says Polybius
And how its innards purr
The players find their way to it
Like moths get drawn to flame
And all the world becomes a blank
As it calls out their name
Beware, I live, beware, I live
I hunger for your thoughts
Beware, I live, beware, I live
I'll root you to this spot
Who could have made a thing so bright?
Whatever does it do?
No player ever seems to know
The what or how or who
The rumors fly around the town
Until it disappears
They say the thing was never there
No matter what you hear
Its players vanish one by one
They're taken in the night
By men in suits who search for those
Who've seen a second sight
Beware, I live, beware, I live
I hunger for your thoughts
Beware, I live, beware, I live
I'll root you to this spot
