Second Life by The Levellers Lyrics

Genre: rock | Year: 2012

[Verse 1]
Free for all
That's how it's meant to be
Night after night
The world gets the real deal
(illegible)
Oh principle you see
They're in the gun sights
All erased from our memory

[Hook]
'Cause it's better than real life
Even better than a real wife
We're broke, oh every night
He's got the answers all right

[Verse 2]
Mind expanded
Always gaining speed
Quick fix immortal God
Saviour that doesn't believe
Their behaviour
Moving from scene to scene
Get out of the room before anybody knows you've ever been
[Hook]
'Cause it's better than real life
Even better than a real wife
We're broke, oh every night
He's got the answers all right

[Chorus]
Second lives we live
Real life goes
Second life dreams
But real life hopes

[Verse 3]
So brightly coloured and so very loud
As long as you keep paying second life will never let you down
And there's just one problem
(illegible)
Just gotta keep going 'cause this missions all you'll ever need

[Hook]
'Cause it's better than real life
Even better than a real wife
We're broke, oh every night
He's got the answers all right
Even better than real life
Even better than a real wife
We're broke, oh every night
He's got the answers all right
[Chorus]
Second lives we live
Real life goes
And second life dreams
When real life hopes
And second life's real
Real life goes
Second life dreams
