[Verse 1 — angular bass] The Lords of Xibalba call my name A hundred victories, the same old game I strike the rubber sun through night You count the one that missed its flight [Pre-Chorus — rising voices] My own road waits beyond the stone But every point belongs to someone [Chorus — explosive, 7/8] Play again! (Play again!) The score is never mine to win I give the heavens all my strength You measure one imperfect swing I'd crack the court and break the game Let every scoreboard turn to sand But smaller players fill the stands And they still need my steady hand [Verse 2 — distorted bass] You move the markers after dawn Declare my hundred victories gone [Bridge — halftime] I want the empty earth again No courts, no rules, no debt to mend But innocent feet would fall with me If I destroyed their place to be [Outro — fading chant] (Play again, play again) The ball comes rolling back to me
