I've been waiting for some last stand To bank everything on one heroic play But when you're waiting for your big chance I've come to learn that it don't go down that way And I'm not talking about no free ride I've stood by and I've watched them fade to dust It's not for high ideals 'cause you know I've tried At some point I think everybody must And you lost me there What's the point of playing If you're trying to win and I don't care I can't get over and I can't get in I wish someday that I was free and wise As to satisfy the justice that I crave The sun will set again, the sun will rise And in the darkness I will have to try to be brave And you lost me there What's the point of playing If you're trying to win and I don't care I can't get over and I can't get in In loving faith, I know a time will come When day and night both you and I will see If that's just a prayer then thy will be done It's just the way that I wanted it to be And you lost me there What's the point of playing If you're trying to win and I don't care I can't get over and I can't get in
