Life's a Game, Want to Play?

My eyes were covered with cloth
Spun around three times
One, Two, Three, I’m ready

“Marco” I call out, “Polo” so silent
Slowly walk in what I see as an abyss of great black

Bang… I hit a pillar, a big beat and beep
I’ve fallen down whirling as the others leap “you okay”
I bounce off place to place like a light reflecting in a haze

Déjà vu, I thought. Here I go again. One. Two. Three.
This time it's different, “open your eyes”

Maybe then I’d see where things went wrong.
