I've been hoping 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

Its 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 that I could feel so free and wise

As to satisfy the justice that I crave

The sun will set again, the sun will rise

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 thats just a prayer, that thy will be done

Thats just the way 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 when I can't get in
