Em
How each of us decides
G
I?ve never been sure
C
the part we play
Em
the way we are


Am                    G                    Bm   
how each of us denies any other way in the world
Em
why each of us must choose
G
I?ve never understood
C
one special friend
Em
one true love
Am                       G                    Bm 
why each of us must lose everyone else in the world


Am
however unsure
G
however unwise
C             Em
day after day play out our lives
Am
however confused
G                        Bm
pretending to know to the end


C                    Em
but this isn't truth this isn't right
G               Em              Am              Em
this isn't love this isn't life this isn't real
B7
this is a lie

how each of us believes
I?ve never really known
in heaven unseen and hell unknown
how each of us dreams to understand anything at all

why each of us decides
I?ve never been sure
the part we take
the way we are
why each of us denies every other way in the world

however unsure
however unwise
day after day play out our lives
however confused
pretending to know to the end


but this isn't truth this isn't right
this isn't love this isn't life this isn't real
this is a lie

this isn't truth this isn't right
this isn't love this isn't life this isn't real
this is a lie
