Lyrics
you've waited too long
with false hopes intact
rely on broken dreams
and backdoor promises
it's too late
it's too late
the foundations cracking
and now
I'll divulge the knowledge that I've learned
one thing in your life
there's a price to pay
there's a price to pay
realization hits home
you've built an empire in a swamp of quicksand
with your concrete ego
pride has blinded your eyes
awaken wiser
to the sad, ugly truth
and now I'll divulge the knowledge that I've learned
one thing in your life
there's a price to pay
there's a price to pay
you've been a good boy
you've been a good boy
there's a price to pay
