The Price Lyrics

Morning comes and I've slept in again

Checking the time as if it matters

I already know it's closer to the end

But it doesn't show, un-wavered stoicism

I'll be free of my captors

Laugh in the face of my masters

He tells me what I really want

He tells me he will guide my hand

And for what he's asking

It's clear to me

Better off dead, platinum for lead

I assumed we've reached an accord

I see it before me

Tell me the invocation

For he will bestow all that I can afford

Make me a la mode, enduring, and adored

I still feel hesitation

Still can't meet expectations

He tells me what I really want

He tells me he will guide my hand

And for what he's asking

It's clear to me

Better off dead, platinum for lead
