Lyrics From Demo
[Chorus]
You can't have glory without the pain
You can't have freedom without the chains
It's a fragile existence, a delicate system
This life is a balancing game
[Verse 1]
I thought I could tip the scales, cheat the game
Have the sun without the rain
Take your love and not exchange my heart for yours
I guess that it's me to blame
[Pre-Chorus]
So, this is what I've found
From the bridges I've burned down
That it all comes back around
Now I know
[Chorus]
You can't have glory without the pain
You can't have freedom without the chains
It's a fragile existence, a delicate system
This life is a balancing game
[Verse 2]
So, then I called you up to make amends
Said, "Take me back", and you said, "Yes"
But now I know just how it ends
You played the game like me, it was all pretend
[Pre-Chorus]
So, this is what I've learned
You can't take and not return
Because, one day, you'll get burned
And now I know
[Chorus]
You can't have glory without the pain
You can't have freedom without the chains
It's a fragile existence, a delicate system
This life is a balancing game
