Austin Stambaugh - What It Costs

To Rate
In the instant, in the turn of your eye
That you suddenly realize, you don't have time
To see things through, dear to you, they must fall right where they lay
With no one beside you, but yourself to blame
What makes no difference will know no pain
And the sum of pleasure will hurt you the same
When it's everything you're leaving for everything that you want
You lose what you have, and that's what it costs

You lose what you have, and that's what it costs
A sum of glory for a sum of loss
And what can you do with the same old blues, but go out and lose them again
You lose what you have, and that's what it costs
You lose what you have, and that's what it costs

You lose what you have, and that's what it costs
A sum of glory for a sum of loss
And what can you do with the same old blues, but go out and lose them again
You lose what you have, and that's what it costs
You lose what you have, and that's what it costs
