Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Changes come so quickly
Easily it can seem bizarre
They say there's a price you pay for going out too far
You can buy a one-way ticket out there all alone
And you can sit and wonder why it's so hard to get back home
[Verse 2]
Nothing is important lost that's not easy to believe
The longer you're in one place, the harder it is to leave
You can have a thousand cards to pull out of your sleeve
But in the end the loser is the one who does deceive
[Verse 3]
There's always a reality
In what you are doin'
Sometimes it's so hard to see
Which one is the true one
[Verse 4]
I used to treat my friends like I was more than a millionaire
Spending those big ones like I could afford them all upstairs
But what's been flying high must always touch the ground
Just walk upstairs and ask, you'll be likely directed down
[Verse 5]
Into the reality of what you are doin'
Sometimes it's so hard to see
Which one is the true one
[Verse 6]
There's always a reality
In what you are doin'
Sometimes it's so hard to see
Which one is the true one
