I falter more than I can say
Nothing left to do but try to find a better way, calling out to you
Still farther from the breakaway.
Face the bitter truth and try to make it through
I never like to lose, but it's all I do
Wondering what path to choose, wearing down my shoes
My heart feels like a bruise, turning black and blue
All that there is left to do, I got to pay my dues.
If you wonder if this life's a game, yes you know it's true
It's not too hard to win the day, but in the end you lose
Remember, we are all the same; Flesh and blood we duel
We slowly turn to fuel
I never like to lose, but it's all I do
Wondering what path to choose, wearing down my shoes
My heart feels like a bruise, turning black and blue.
All that there is left to do, I got to pay my dues.
I never like to lose, but it's all I do
Wondering what path to choose, wearing down my shoes
My heart feels like a bruise, turning black and blue
All that there is left to do
I'm tired of the abuse turning me onto this pessimistic avenue; breaking me in two
I start to see the ruse, making me confused
All that there is left to do, I got to pay my dues
I got to pay my dues
I got to pay my dues
