>>82052579 (OP)I unironically like this song; I listened to it on repeat quite a lot. Maybe it's because I'm ESL, so the lyrics don't sound too goofy to me.
To me, the lyrics read like the lyrical subject is a young, awkward male that uses fantasy, in this case games, as guiding analogies to navigate an unfamiliar, hostile reality. He is then confronted by the therapist who presents him with an antithesis: life is not like fantasy, and that he needs to overcome his attatchment to video games in order to fully live it. The song then synthesizes these two ideas, as the lyrical subject concludes that life is amazing and, in that, does indeed resemble fantasy.
It's a very positive message. It reminds me of Tolkien's thoughts on fantasy and escapism. Now, what Tolkien wrote is rather extensive, so I will include Le Guin's paraphrasing of it instead.
"Fantasy is escapist, and that is its glory. If a soldier is imprisoned by the enemy, don't we consider it his duty to escape? The moneylenders, the knownothings, the authoritarians have us all in prison; if we value the freedom of the mind and soul, if we're partisans of liberty, then it's our plain duty to escape, and to take as many people with us as we can." - Ursula K. Le Guin: The Language of the Night: Essays on Fantasy and Science Fiction
