VERSE 1 (LUKE)
This game's been played before
Seventy-three times won

The faster you die the faster you lose
Life's the prize for one


PRE (JOEY)
Children wielding weapons, cutting short a life
Cameras see it all

But were they enemies, or were they friends?
Gotta make it through somehow


CHORUS (LUKE, JOEY, MEGHAN)
The arena
The arena

This is our world stage
The arena
The arena

This is our death cage
Cannons in the distance, the distance
silver parachutes descend

You've been spared for now,
but for how long?
When will all this end?


VERSE 2 (MEGHAN)
Watch out for the Careers

Murder's in their veins
Cato, Clove, and Glimmer
Survive and thrive on pain


PRE 2 (JOEY)
All that's left are the eyes, twisted muttations

Risen from the dead
Born to kill, bred to die
But they bleed all the same


Five, four, three, two, one


CHORUS (LUKE, JOEY, MEGHAN)
The arena
The arena

This is our world stage
The arena
The arena

This is our death cage
Cannons in the distance, the distance
silver parachutes descend

You've been spared for now,
but for how long?
When will all this end?


BRIDGE (LUKE)
No allies or teams, only their screams

No allies or teams
Five, four, three, two, one


CHORUS (LUKE, JOEY, MEGHAN)
The arena
The arena

This is our world stage
The arena
The arena

This is our death cage
Cannons in the distance, the distance
silver parachutes descend

You've been spared for now,
but for how long?
When will all this end?
