Pinball Songtext

von Raining Jane

In this life arcade I am one in a million.
Bouncing off the pins of the neon illusion.
I know some play for fun, and I know you play to win.
Well I'm just trying to get through, and I'm watching the quarters fall in.

I-I-I-I should've been wi-i-ise to the conversation.
You you you you you were shutting your ey-ey-eyes on the situation.

Today I see clearer, I'm just a silver ball.
Shooting by you like a mirror reflecting, on us all.
I'm racing down a line at the the speed of light.
I'm suddenly reminded why I even tried.

I-I-I-I should've been wi-i-ise to the conversation.
You you you you you were shutting your ey-ey-eyes on the situation.
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh all of these points that we're busy collecting.
I-I-I-I-I I'm finally starting, starting to question.

At the end of the day.
It's just a game we play.
And a fist full of paper tickets, will get you nothing but plastic me.

Well, I'm now wise to the conversation.
And I-I-I-I and shutting my eyes on the situation.
And oh-oh all we're striving for is a straight shot through.
And I-I-I-I recognize there's just some work to do.
I-I-I
