How long I have wanted
this dream to come true
And as it approaches
I can't believe I'm through
I've tried
Oh, how I've tried
For a life, yes a life
I thought I knew
(chorus)
Oh it's the price we gotta pay
And all the games we gotta play
Makes me wonder
if it's worth it to carry on
'Cause it's a game we gotta lose
Though it's a life we gotta choose
And the price is our own life
until it's done
Time seems to have frozen
but the mind can be fooled
As the days pass I discover
destiny just can't be ruled
Hard times
Oh, hard times
For the prize, yes the prize
I thought I knew
(repeat chorus 3x)
