Lyrics:[]
Original Version[]
Bow:
Contestants get to have all the fun!
If you're on the show you've already won!
Now that I no longer compete, I feel incomplete
Taking part in the action, made for easy interaction with friends.
And nothing was the same once it wasn't just a game,
I never wanted it to end!
I hope that I could feel alive again!
Marshmallow:
Without the game, you don't feel alive?
Bow:
Yeah! Haha, ah...
Marshmallow:
Wow, that's weird. I think I see it the exact opposite way.
Contestants are divided for fun.
They face challenges that are never done.
Since every single person you meet
could cause your defeat.
All they want is your reaction,
as you become a fraction, a blend.
Between who you really are
and what you know could get you far,
it's not meant for us to transcend.
We have someone upon whom we depend.
Marshmallow & Bow:
We have someone upon whom we depend.
EXTENDED PORTION
In fact when I
think of that life,
it isn't really living...
at all...

Bow: Contestants get to have all the fun!
Marshmallow: They face challenges that are never done.
Bow: If you're on the show you've already won!
Marshmallow: Since every single person you meet could cause your defeat.
Bow: Now that I no longer compete, I feel incomplete.
Marshmallow: All they want is your reaction, as you become a fraction, a blend.
Bow: I had easy interaction with friends.
Marshmallow: And it would be a shame, if we stayed what we became.
Bow: And nothing was the same, once it wasn't just a game.
Marshmallow: It's up to us,
Bow: I never wanted it to end!
Marshmallow: to transcend.
Bow: I hoped that I could feel alive again.
Marshmallow: I only want to feel alive again.
