[Verse 1]
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

[Verse 2]
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
[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

[Guitar Solo]

[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
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
