LYRICS GAME

It was fine

Yeah, I'm fine

Bye

Thanks a lot, Lauren

Yes

What's going on

Nothing

Well no, not nothing. There's as many tears on your sheet

As on your cheeks. There's a problem

No, no, I'm fine

I don't know. You've been down for a week

You cry during the assignment

If something's wrong, you can talk to me

No, it's okay. I don't need to tell you about it

You're not my father

No, I'm not your father. Did you talk about it with your father

No. My dad doesn't give a sh*t

Alright, fine, can I go

You come home early, earlier than before

You turn on your computer, you wait

They're all there, behind the screen

This time again, it's not your party

You still read, you lower your head

It will have to stop someday

Those words tossed out, just to see

Behind a keyboard, who knows

Which well-behaved kid takes power

Alone in his room, a kid laughs

To make the others laugh with him

And today it's falling on you

Dry your tears, look at me

I hurt even more than you

When your eyes ask me Why

We repeat what we hear

We look for our place in the wind

But they're only kids' words

Do you know the neknominations

No, what's that

You down a bottle of straight vodka

You don't wanna look like a fool, so you do it

For a girl who tells them no

For a boy who loves a boy

For a dumb little line

Because in the middle of a schoolyard

Not just balls fly

There aren't only role-playing games

Who's pathetic

Who's the top dog

For a jacket, for a phone

It's so easy to kill

Lift your head, look at me

I hurt even more than you

And we run into tons of them, the virtual thugs

Little girls are thirteen, already want to be sexy

The walls don't have ears anymore, they've got Bluetooth, ADSL

And we play at who'll be the most cruel

The comments are calling for help

Sometimes words are tears

Keyboards shoot, computers are weapons

"Mom I'm staying in my room, Mom I'm not very hungry

Mom I made people hurt, but it's as short as a chorus"

Encounters on the net, you no longer even know who you see

Messages are private, no need to strain your voice

"I love you" by text and "I miss you" by email

You liked me on Twitter and dumped me by BBM

When I was little we didn't have a computer

We kept playing soccer and talked for hours

You're alone in front of the screen, even on holidays

Tell me who you surf with, I'll tell you who you trash

Why

Ask them, they don't know

They think they're playing like grown-ups

At other wars, at other kids' games

Lift your head, speak, I hear you

Change the direction of the wind

Hate slips into the luggage

At picture-book age

How do I lift my head from my keyboard

Dry your tears, look at me

Just open an account if you want to talk

I've got so many other words for you

Dad, I don't have your time anymore, I'm online

Your eyes ask Where are we going

I'm chilling in my room, you know where I'm going

Nowhere, if you don't talk to me about it

How many went silent today

How many more will there be
