Lyrics: James Beeny & Gina Georgio
Music: James Beeny/Gina Georgio
When a man who kills people for a living
Starts giving advice on virtue and vice
Tells you to stop rolling the dice
Do you listen
Or do you take a risk in your life
Live on the edge of a knife?
When opportunity knocks
It opens locked doors
The keys become yours
You live by new laws
But it's a paradox
'Cos every choice that you make
Is a step you didn't take
For another just cause
Either way
You have to pay the price
For choosing what comes next
Make your choice
Try not to crack
And don't look back
Anyway, it's a little too late
For me to ruminate
To doubt or deliberate
Would complicate things with my wife
She's the love of my life
To lose her respect would be
Worse than death
She's my air
She's my breath
My lady Macbeth
You guide me
And drive me
And, possibly, admire me
For what I'm about to do
To show my love for you
Either way
You have to pay the price
For choosing what comes next
Make your choice
Try not to crack
And don't look back
I feel it now
My soul is aligned and combined
With the mission that I've been assigned
There's something indisputable, even beautiful
About the way that this has all been timed
It's a miracle, and itβs spiritual, even if I'm cynical
It's hard to deny every symbol, every sign, that is written on my mind
This is god's design
So who am I to turn a blind eye
To the visions that he shows me in the sky?
Even now, I can see β
A dagger speaks to me
I can almost touch the blade
I'm not afraid
It was made for me
And I will lay my life in the hands of god
Who has chosen me
Either way
You have to pay the price
For choosing what comes next
Make your choice
Try not to crack
And don't look back
Make your choice
Try not to crack
And donβt look back
