How It Is

[Intro]
I wanna stay but you wanna go so far away
I guess that this is how it is

[Verse 1]
Forgive my blaring silence
That cuts the air like knives to the bone
No hiding it, no denying
Together we are yet alone
Familiar faces, yet not a trace is
Discovered in this moment we're in
Still is the motion, it's like an ocean
Between now and then where our story begins

[Chorus]
I wanna stay but you wanna go so far away
I guess that this is how it is
I wish I had known our love was your game
But my love is no game to be played
I guess that this is how it is

[Verse 2]
You can't blame my eyes for being frozen
They just can't believe what they see
And pardon my mind for not knowing
What lies beyond my periphery
It's like we never said that together
Is what we would always be
Please be pretending this is the ending
If it's not too late
I'll do whatever it takes

[Chorus]
I wanna stay but you wanna go so far away
I guess that this is how it is
I wish I had known our love was your game
But my love is no game to be played
I guess that this is how it is

[Bridge]
It would have been nice to have a little warning
'Cause I was still loving while you were here leaving inside
How did your eyes hide the thoughts that were dawning

[Chorus]
I wanna stay but you wanna go so far away
I guess that this is how it is
I wish I had known our love was your game
But my love is no game to be played
I guess that this is how it is
