Lyrics: Jakko M. Jakszyk/Mel Collins/Robert Fripp Music: Jakko M. Jakszyk/Mel Collins/Robert Fripp The words that still remain Always stay the same Is grief the price we pay? (The price we pay) You know I tore this page from history So I could show it to you now Connect each tiny little compromise So I can show you how it works (How it works) In amidst the fading rain washed borders Deep beneath the muddy fields it just became The price we pay In amidst the fading rain washed borders Deep beneath the muddy fields it just became Crushed beneath a thousand four leaf clovΠ΅rs Tiny drops of wasted tears Are thΠ΅ price we pay
