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
