They told me about a golden road paved with dreams and fame
I though i'd try to walk it-get down and play the game
The treasures of the world kept comin'...all my dreams came true
But i didn't realize the price i've paid or the changes i've gone through, yeah
Changes i've gone through
Clinging to the shape of a fantasy, rolling down the slope of desire
Most of the time spent pulling it out of the fire
Turned away from god and his love, and i worshipped myself
The idols that i've built, all crumbled on my shelf, yeah, yeah,
They all crumbled on my shelf
But all along i realized
That if i had to
If i had to choose
Between love an' my own sweet lies
Love was bound to lose, yeah, love was bound to lose
They told me about a broken road paved with death and shame
I though i'd try to find it...get away from playing the game
I finally realized the price he paid for changes i've gone though
I finally realized the price he paid for changes i've gone though
Changes i've gone though
