about

Pinball Ego came from looking around at the egoic nature of humankind on the planet, and my own egoic comings and goings. By ego I mean the unobserved mind, as Eckhart Tolle would say. The highs and lows can be so extreme and seem so out of control. Centering ourselves in Presence dissolves the ego.

lyrics

Pinball Ego

Proud as punch, bullet-proof, free
Come on world, take a look at me
Next I’m writhing on the floor in pain
Wracked with endless guilt and shame

Something descends, don’t know what I catch
Jealousy, envy at succes I can’t match
From zero to rage in 5 seconds flat
When I look back later, “what the hell was that?”

CHORUS
Pinball ego burning bouncing round inside
Strangest thing I never did hide
One moment I’m flying like there’s no tomorrow,
The next I’m buried in grief and sorrow.

Pinball ego, you’re killing my peace
What would it take to make you cease
Your time has come, you’re riding too tall
I know how to pull the plug from the wall

CHORUS
Pinball ego burning bouncing round inside
Strangest thing I never did hide
One moment I’m flying like there’s no tomorrow,
The next I’m buried in grief and sorrow.

Pinball ego, you’re destroying my life
Wherever I go, you’re causing me strife
Your time has come, you’re going to fall
Now’s the time to pull the plug from the wall

CHORUS
Pinball ego burning bouncing round inside
Strangest thing I never did hide
One moment I’m flying like there’s no tomorrow,
The next I’m buried in grief and sorrow.
