Who Pays the Price
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Yes it's dark sometimes
When the people are shoving
Pushing you into the ground
And you cry in the daylight
With the sun in your eyes
Even though you kow you're not alone
And it's all been felt before
You stare out through your window
And wonder if there's gonna be more
CHORUS
It brings you down
It's like a war
Who pays the price
If you want more
Quiet desperation of a million lives
gonna make you change your ways
We got everything we wanted
But forgot how we got it
Just can't paint it golden anyway
And the strength of all you're giving
Is gonna make the changes
Tomorrow's gonna bring a new day
CHORUS
As the years go by
Will it show on your face
Or stay hidden behind some door
Yeah you made your solutions
With the will of a priest
But you're not so sure anymore
And the reasons why you're living
Keep changing everytime you find a key you find more
CHORUS
