The Prize Songtext
von Ryan Power

If we could escape this time everything might fall in line
If it feels like it did before
I don′t want no more, what's behind that door

All the targets move to fast to take them out with a single blast
Stop pretending there is no limit to this
Then you′ll never miss, then we'll never miss

I know you're tired, you didn′t sleep but a wink no
Tell me how it happened

Once I stopped to look ahead happiness had turned to dread
The future found lost souls with payments stopping
Can′t you hear them counting, can't you hear them say
We got you

Hang out with the reasons you expect so much
Drama by design, this won′t be the last time we fuck it up


Just when you think you got it right, you're wrong
We just have to blow it in order to know it
We need to suffer for the prize
Violins sing once you give up the fight
We just have to lose it in order to prove it
Don′t have to suffer all our life
For a box full of lies

Shame on you you crazy fool, eye on the wrong prize
Loosen your clutch and take a deep breath
Time for you to get wise

I know you're angry, you didn′t get what you wanted no

Working hard to stay afloat in the banker's stinking mote
Every time you come up they push you back in
They don't want you to win, they don′t know how to swim

Hang out with the reasons you expect so much
Failure by design, this won′t be the last time we fuck it up

Just when you think you got it right, you're wrong
We just have to blow it in order to know it
We need to suffer for the prize
Violins sing once you give up the fight
We just have to lose it in order to prove it
Don′t have to suffer all your life
For a box full of lies


Shame on you you crazy fool, eye on the wrong prize
Loosen your clutch and take a deep breath
Time for you to get wise
Eyes gone red, but blue round your neck, mad at the wrong guy
Take your head out of the fox's ass
Time to open your eyes

I know you′re angry, you didn't get what you wanted no
But sometimes it happens

Bye Bye Birdie

This is what they wanted
