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

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

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

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

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
