paroles de chanson The Game - VNV Nation

Let's play a game
One where we make the rules
The ultimate prize
The highest of stakes, win or lose

Chance reveals all
Deciding its different moves
Fate isn't a friend
Fate divides the sheep from the wolves

Some play to win
Some play for fortune, some for fame
Some play for love
Of all, the most dangerous game
Forfeit or call
Elation or misery
But that's how it's played
And the house always gets its way

Evens and odds
Put it on red or black
Or die at the turn
Wagers or going bank

First blood is drawn
Parry, riposte, defend
We're playing for keeps
And holding a losing hand

Some play to win
Some play for fortune, some for fame
Some play for love
Of all, the most dangerous game
Forfeit or call
Elation or misery
But that's how it's played
And the house always gets its way

Everyone lies
Dressed up in misanthropic smiles
Planning their moves
The pieces they'll sacrifice

And they say, "All is fair"
No chance to resign in style
No winners, just fools
The game is just gun smoke and sharpened knives

Some play to win
Some play for fortune, some for fame
Some play for love
Of all, the most dangerous game
Forfeit or call
Elation or misery
But that's how it's played
And the house always gets its way

And some play to win
Some play for fortune, some play for fame
And some play for love
Of all, the most dangerous game
Forfeit or call
Elation or misery
But that's how it's played
And the house always gets its way
Always gets its way
