The Numbers Game Lyrics

Statistics, get twisted
What kind of life are we living?
Our world is data-driven

Correlation's not causation
The truth is often hidden
My world is data-driven

Got no destination. Distracted by the stations
Money and crap and those complications
Still I try, and I I I I

Got down, but don't know how to do this
Oh no, gotta hit the digits
I eat I sleep I feel
I'm living my life, flat out running, running on the running wheel

God knows, I do not to want to do this
All work, however I'll come through this
For life, for family, for pleasure
For now and on and on forever

Every time the same
Why do I even play?
I'm losing at the numbers game

Bad sampling. Wrong baseline.
Mistakes are not forgiven
When your world is data-driven

Cos of bias, interpretation
I can't connect or make decisions
When the world is data-driven

Got no destination. Distracted by the stations
Money and crap and all those complications
Still I try, and I I I I

Got down, but don't know how to do this
Oh no, gotta hit the digits
I eat I sleep I feel
I'm living my life, flat out running, running on the running wheel

God knows, I do not to want to do this
All work, however I'll come through this
For life, for family, for pleasure
For now and on and on forever

Every time the same
Why do I even play?
I'm losing at the numbers game

Gotta think to the future, look a long way deeper
Need to ask what my values are, focus as a seeker

On who am I. And why?

Got down, but don't know how to do this
Oh no, gotta hit the digits
I eat I sleep I feel
I'm living my life, flat out running, running on the running wheel

God knows, I do not to want to do this
All work, however I'll come through this
For life, for family, for pleasure
For now and on and on forever

Every time the same
Why do I even play?
I'm losing at the numbers game
