Zen and 'The Game' - is this what it means to grow up?

You've got to keep in the game / retaining mystique while facing forward / I suggest a reading of 'A Lesson in Tightropes' or 'Surfing your high hopes' or 'Adios Kansas' / it isn't very smart / tends to make one part / so brokenhearted...  (musician/songwriter Rufus Wainwright, in track 1 on album 2: Poses, 2001)

I'm out of the game / I've been out for a long time / Now I'm looking for something / That can't be found on the main drag.  (Rufus Wainwright again, in track 1 on album 7: Out of the Game, 2012)
