Lyrics
How Things Play Out
Verse 1
If I say
I'm not very wise
It's no surprise
I have no alibis
I can't believe my eyes
I guess I'll improvise
Verse 2
When I think
What could really be
I'm stuck between
All that's meant for me
It shatters all my dreams
No matter what it seems
Instrument Break
Refrain 1
Guarantees are just a tease, I've found
My disdain, I can't explain, it hurts my brain
It's just a shame, to see, how all these things, play out
Verse 3
Now I see
Nothing's ever free
I do not agree
That it's a fantasy
Or endless tragedy
It's just reality
Refrain 2
Verse 4 Verse 5
When I feel Is it true
That I need some grace That I never lied
My thoughts will race I must confide
And leave without a trace My mind is occupied
Because I need to face I swallow all my pride
The things I can't erase Now I must decide
Ending
