A love song about a woman...or an Xbox. You decide.
lyrics
The Red Ring of Death
You used to respond when I pushed your buttons;
you'd hum and get hot,
and we'd play for hours, on the bed, on the couch,
from dusk 'til dawn.
We've been on an adventure or two:
Angel, I rode your Halo through space;
and we lived a fairytale, a Fable;
you were my Lady Grey.
But all at once, you put up a wall:
a red ring of silence--the death of our love.
And I thought we could save the world;
in fact, we did a dozen times.
But now you won't respond to me;
who will stop the Locust Horde?
You committed Grand Theft--
Auto-matically stealing my heart--
when you went cold to my touch;
oh, you can't refurbish such hurt.
CHORUS
Now I'm heartless and homeless,
looking for a new box to settle in.
I'll trade in your memories, pawn all your stuff,
and find love again.

and we lived a fairytale, a Fable;

But all at once, you put up a wall:
a red ring of silence--the death of our love.
And I thought we could save the world;
