the times have changes and so have they   these changing times won't change me   casted aside, lost all my friends   more important to me, than it ever was to them.   their beliefs were ran down, but mine stood so tall   so many close friends i've said goodbye to them all   lost all support, but the fires still in my heart   to stand alone is to stand fucking hard   backs are turned, faces look away   but convictions grow stronger every day     if it means i'll stand on my own   thats the price i'll pay, and i'll pay it alone   if only i'll stand, then alone i will strive   remain, sustain     mountains of trials, solitary days   but no matter what, the spirit remains   alone in this crowd, but i'll persist   temptations and pressure i'l never give in   my promise is made, my promise is kept   a passing fad reminds me of all that you've said   no shoulder to lean on, as lonely as a cloud   but i've held true, and never been so proud     ...(the) price i'll pay   for the value, for the truth   for the meaning of it all...the worth
