Console Reality

Through putrid post apocalyptic wastelands I wander gun in hand prepared to annihilate those critters who dare to cross my path then I press the pause button and sip from my china cup thankful that life isn't like my console reality whilst I flick through the channels on my flatscreen TV Game break over back to fighting bad guys in a pixelated land I let off a round a-tat-a-tat-tat It kind of looks familiar like an item on the news but I know my mind's just playing tricks Real life is bliss
