Chinese Whispers

CHINESE WHISPERS (2013-2015)

A copy of a copy of a copy
A picture of a picture of a picture
rumours based on lies and hearsay
everything’s turning into Chinese Whispers

A remix of a remix of a remix
A dogma based on stories based on nothing
This game creates the weirdest demons
everything’s turning into Chinese Whispers

I’d like to see it with my own two eyes
I’d like to hear it with my own two ears
Don’t tell me what it means
Don’t put a nametag on
I don’t want a secondhand life

A reaction to an opinion about an idea
of someone who didn’t know what she was talking
about in the first place
Pages filled with random phrases
Everything’s turning into Chinese Whispers

A rip off of an example of a cliche
News-items misquoted and repeated
Madness, fear, panic and paranoia
This game creates the weirdest demons

I’d like to see it with my own two eyes
I’d like to hear it with my own two ears
Don’t tell me what it means
Don’t put a nametag on
I don’t want a secondhand lie

I’d like to see it with my own two eyes
I’d like to hear it with my own two ears
Don’t tell me what it means
DON’T TELL ME WHAT TO THINK!
I don’t want a secondhand life
