[Title Removed]

Verse 1

Plastic

Thin cardboard

Shrink-wrap tight on the dreams

The dungeon floor is paved with ads

Gold

Fake coins

Piled high

Paid for with a debit card

Chorus

They sold the dragon

They sold the dragon

They sold the dragon for a dollar

Empty boxes

Empty boxes

The magic's gone

Gone away

Verse 2

Dusty

Laminated

Corporate monsters in the hall

Rulebooks heavy as a grave

Ink

Smears

Slick paper

Grease from a fast food bag

I remember

Paper sheets

Hand-drawn maps

Back when it was just us two

Pencil lead

Broken

Black ash

Gray smoke

Chorus

They sold the dragon

They sold the dragon

They sold the dragon for a dollar

Empty boxes

Empty boxes

The magic's gone

Gone away

Bridge

Pay the fee

Sign the name

Buy the skin

Play the game

Everything is shiny

Everything is hollow

Verse 3

Quiet

Shadows

In the corner of the room

Dying candles on the shelf

Old

Old dice

Round edges

Weighted by the heavy years

No more

Searching

No more

Finding anything at all

Chorus

They sold the dragon

They sold the dragon

They sold the dragon for a dollar

Empty boxes

Empty boxes

The magic's gone

Gone away

Outro

Roll for nothing

Roll for nothing

Roll for nothing

It's just a game

Just a game

Just a game

Turn it off
