Anyone's Game

Anybody born knows how to play this little game

First, they light a candle in themselves

They lean it up against the wind, and then they run around the rain

Anybody born plays pretty well

If they crawl into another's heart while someone counts to ten

Let's just say that's the hardest place to hide

They jump out of their fame and names until the game begins again

They open one another's empty eyes

Till they rise like ashes off the ground

And fall down like diamonds off the dead

Till they go as though they're coming back

And take their time like it's all they're gonna get

Anybody born knows how to play this little game

No one can be born too many times

First, they kiss their lucky dice, then they dig themselves a grave

They do this until it's killing them to try

To rise like ashes off the ground

And fall down like diamonds off the dead

To go as though they're coming back

And take their time like it's all they're gonna get

To rise like ashes off the ground

And fall down like diamonds off the dead

Let's just say that the clues are few, and the last one in's an egg

They bend the map or just turn around if their life gets in the way

Let's just say, let's just say

That their life gets in the way

Let's just say, let's just say, let's just say

Let's just say, let's just say
