I'm an opportunity
And I knock so softly
Sometimes I get loud
When I wish everybody'd just get off me
So many players
You'd think I was a ball game
Its every man for themselves
There are no team mates
This life gets lonely
When everybody wants something
They'll smile up in your face
But they'll get theirs eventually
And I hope I'm there
Surrounded by familiar faces without names
None of them know me
Or want to share my pain
And they only wish to bask in my light
Then fade away
To win my love, to them a game
To watch me live my life in vain
When all is done and the glitter fades away
They'll get theirs eventually
And I hope I'm there
I drank your poison
Cause you told me its wine
Shame on you if you fooled me once
Shame on me if you fooled me twice
I didn't know the price
You'll get yours eventually
So what good am I to you
If I can't be broken?
You'll get yours
Yes you'll get yours
Eventually
