"I don't need to get a life. I'm a gamer. I have lots of lives." - Unknown

"Life is a game, you live so you play. Follow your dreams and win what your happy heart desires." - Roel van Sleeuwen

lyrics

Electro-life, world in your pocket
Noise in your head, no way to stop it
Daily news - devil made you do it
Can’t crawl away, so you just say screw it.
Plans and schemes and hopes and dreams just slip - away
Slide into a universe - that’s made - for play - and stay

Electro-life, Gort’s latest mission
Headset life - simulated vision
Kill count high - coming in a savior
Bonus points just for doing them a favor
Take the road less traveled by and find - the key
Nineteen levels left to go unit - you’re free - like me

If I can save the princess - then I can save the kingdom
I can bring peace throughout the land
The cure is in here somewhere - that stops the evil outbreak
It’s time to make my final stand

Electro-life - Easter egg obsession
Burning eyes - big boss dementia
Trapped inside - grinding to perfection
Say goodbye - real-world absentia

If I can save the princess - then I can save the kingdom
I can bring peace throughout the land
The cure is in here somewhere - that stops the evil outbreak
It’s time to make my final stand

Electro-life, world in your pocket
Noise in your head, no way to stop it
Daily news - devil made you do it
Can’t crawl away, so you just say screw it.
Plans and schemes and hopes and dreams just slip - away
Slide into a universe - as my body fades - away - away - away...
