The Lyrics

Choice in a video game can be all well and good...most of the time, anyways.
Oh-oh-oh
Ho-oh, oh, oh-oh, oh
Eh

It's been weighin' on me since this whole game started
After I got through the "teach mechanics" missions
Want me to engage with it, I'd rather skip it
Forced it now, really forced it now
I'm here to kill monsters so I don't care if you
Want me to pick sides 'cause of some weird lore issue
I had planned to get to it at some point, that's true
Forced it now, really forced it now
Got a bunch of stupid factions
They all seem to suck, a big pile of douche
But you lock me out of content
'Cause I'd rather choose to pass, why can't I be unaligned?

Why can't I be unaligned? Why can't I be unaligned?
Why can't I be unaligned (no, I just don't understand)? Why can't I be unaligned?
Why can't I be unaligned? Why can't I be unaligned?
Why can't I be unaligned (uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh)?

I, I always hear, always hear them talkin'
Talkin' the whole blurb, the whole blurb to explain
How one side's oppressive and the other's racist
And group number three's no group, really
Pain, I wish I could ignore you
But then, but then I won't have full completion, damn you
Stupid game (stupid game), the rest of it's good
But this part right now? Hate this part right now
'Cause I don't like any faction
Ev'rybody sucks, immeas'rable tools
Know I'm not the first to say it
It's been pretty wildly panned, why can't we be unaligned?

Why can't we be unaligned? Why can't we be unaligned?
Why can't we be unaligned (no, I just don't understand)? Why can't we be unaligned?
Not a good bit of plottin' (why can't we be unaligned?)
Fine to have greyer options (why can't we be unaligned?)
I'm sorry but you've botched it (why can't we be unaligned?) (uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh)?

How would that option play out? I don't know
No designer right here, steer away from that, though
'Cause where that thought train's next landin' (ah)
Is the fact I've done this quest a lot, true (ah, ah, ah, ah)
And you'll claim that means I'm rantin' (ah) for nought, cram it, it's still lackin' (ah, ah, ah, ah, ah-ah-ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)
Why can't we be unaligned (ah-ah)?

Complete it all while grumblin' (why can't we be unaligned?)
Under my breath, straight mumblin' (why can't we be unaligned?)
That this was done while bumblin' (why can't we be unaligned?) (uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh)
Because this is pretty bad (why can't we be unaligned?) (ah-ah)
The writin' is still shoddy (why can't we be unaligned?) (oh-oh-oh-oh)
One of the first drafts, prob'bly (why can't we be unaligned?)
If you worked hard, oof, sorry (why can't we be unaligned?) (uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh)
'Cause it's still done really bad (why can't we be unaligned?) (ah-ah)

Know it by rote, I hurry
Skipped dialogue sounds funny (why can't we be unaligned?)
One joy I get, rest's cruddy (ah (uh-huh), ah (uh-huh), ah (uh-huh), ah (uh-huh), ah-ah (uh-huh))

Pretty obvious what game I've been replaying recently, huh?
