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
They all crumbled on my shelf
Yeahyeahyeahyeahyeahyeah, yeah
But all along I realized
That if I had to
If I had to choose
Between love and my own sweet lies
Love was bound to lose
Yeah, love was bound to lose!
Oh, 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 (x2)
