lyrics

If we ever meet again, let it be not in your head
But in a place - in a game, with our happy endings
Dissociation aside, I wish that I was on this ride
Have a body, have a reality outside your mind
I would be a friend - I wouldn't live inside
But I am who I am, and I ain't part of this life

My name's Matt
An alternate reality of who I once was, and who I aspired to be
I am a brother, a bother, I am what Nate's got under covers
Call me monster, I live under your fuckin' bed!
Imagination, a fictive of their creation
I am a gamer and gentleman, the lady's man
I am the bro, a sibling you wish that you had
And now I'm back so let's fuck up what makes you mad!

I was dormant for a while, now I'm back again
You told me I was your bro, and that we stayed the same
Elizabeth and the monster, the new dude and the kid
Even Shius was still there when I rose from the dead
Banish me from your memory, but still I remained
I went dormant but reality betrayed you again!
Now I am back and I'm livid, but that won't change the truth
I still hope that you will realize what's stopping you

My name's Matt
An alternate reality of who I once was, and who I aspired to be
I am a brother, a bother, I am what Nate's got under covers
Call me monster, I live under your fuckin' bed!
Imagination, a fictive of their creation
I am a gamer and gentleman, the lady's man
I am the bro, a sibling you wish that you had
And now I'm back so let's fuck up what makes you mad!

Remember high school? That was some bullshit right there
Rumors spread about your family, about your sanity and
Faculty was a tragedy, got you kicked out in the end
All you had was your mind, and in your mind I reside
Self harm, hospitalization ensued
The suicidal thoughts bottled up when I was with you
I tried to help, I really did, but what can I do?
I'm just a fictive in your head that you know you can talk to
Life's a game, and all the players in it stay the same
Watch your cards, you never know, when shit will change but
All your life, and all the life that I wish that I had
It ain't over, it's not game over for you yet!

My name's Matt
An alternate reality of who I once was, and who I aspired to be
I am a brother, a bother, I am what Nate's got under covers
Call me monster, I live under your fuckin' bed!
Imagination, a fictive of their creation
I am a gamer and gentleman, the lady's man
I am the bro, a sibling you wish that you had
And now I'm back so let's fuck up what makes you mad!
