Much Worse Games to Play Lyrics by Bookish Songs Collective

In The Meadow

2024

[Intro]
Can you feel the heat of a thousand eyes?
Can you hear the beat of your failing heart?
Everybody's watching the hammer fall
Everybody's hearing the cannon call
[Verse 1]
Sacrifice
Keep the kids in line
Keep your solemn lies
They're all that you provide
We can't hide
Blood is on our minds
But it's got a price
The fear's all that survives
[Pre-Chorus]
Count the cannons, count the days
Let yourself just wash away
[Chorus]
Another victor takes the stage
Share the carnage in their wake
Up, see what's in front of you
Take your mark and take your aim
Give your freedom to the game
Count the killers
Count the prey
This is how good children play
[Verse 2]
Try to run
They've already won
Don't you think it's fun
The way we've come undone
Win or lose
There is no excuse
But you've gotta choose
We're all just being used
[Pre-Chorus]
Count the cannons, count the days
Let yourself just wash away
[Chorus]
Another victor takes the stage
Share the carnage in their wake
Up, see what's in front of you
Take your mark and take your aim
Give your freedom to the game
Count the killers
Count the prey
This is how good children play
[Bridge]
Keeping all your cameras on
The people love your bloody palms
The crowd will watch with their applause
And wish the color was
Red as death and blood and sin
Black as all your recompense
White as all your innocence
Gone
[Chorus]
Another victor takes the stage
Share the carnage in their wake
Up, see what's in front of you
Take your mark and take your aim
Give your freedom to the game
Count the killers
Count the prey
This is how good children play
