you're walking down a lonely road

you have no place to call your home

you play your game feel no pain

when the wheels of life come to an end

you're walking proud winds on your back

your head held high or else you crack

you play your game feel no shame

whatever it is is coming again

why can't it be like it used to be

why can't it be why can't it be that way at all

why can't it be like it used to be

why can't it be why can't you see when you fall

dream of things that may not come

you slip and slide into your numb

you play your game feel no pain

the ribbons of life just come untied

you hitch a ride without a care

the breeze is blowing through your hair

you play your game feel no shame

when the reaper is sitting by your side

why can't it be like it used to be

why can't it be why can't it be that way at all

why can't it be like it used to be

why can't it be why can't you see it when you fall

trouble

why can't it be like it used to be

why can't it be why can't it be that way at all

why can't it be like it used to be

why can't it be why can't you see it when you fall

why can't it be like it used to be

why can't it be

why can't it be that way at all

why can't it be like it used to be

why can't it be

why can't you see when you fall
