[(C) - (Em) - (G) - (Em) - (Am) - (G) - (B7)]
(Em)
How each of us decides
(G)
I\'ve never been sure
(C)
The part we play
(Em)
The way we are
(Am) (G) (B7)
How each of us denies any other way in the world
Why each of us must choose
I\'ve never understood
One special friend
One true love
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) (B7)
Pretending to know to the end
(C) (Em)
But this isn\'t truth, this isn\'t right,
(G) (Em) (Am) (G)
This isn\'t love, this isn\'t life, this isn\'t real,
(B7)
This is a lie.
[(Am) - (G) - (C) - (Em) - (Am) - (G) - (B7)]
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.
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.
