The Price Lyrics

Hey there, sweetie pie

Won't you hold my hand tonight

It feels like the world is beating me down

The world sees black and white

You're either wrong or you're either right

And right now I feel somewhere in the middle

I've made mistakes and paid the price

I've done the kind thing once or twice

They want me perfect… but how?

Everyone's mouth spits out lies

They always want but they never try

Then there's me sitting in the rain

I always try but don't succeed

I'll love someone who won't love me

Why can't I catch a break?

I've made mistakes and paid the price

I've done the kind thing once or twice

They want me perfect… but how?

But how

I've made mistakes and paid the price

I've done the kind thing once or twice

They call me perfect… but how?

Perhaps one day I'll find the key

That lifts me up and sets me free

For now I'll keep breathing
