[00:02.716]This is the moment when
[00:05.668]The gods expect me to beg for help
[00:10.997]But I won't even try
[00:14.367]I want nothing in the world
[00:16.953]But myself to protect me
[00:21.159]And I won't lie down, roll over, and die
[00:37.511]All I have to do is forget how much I love him
[00:44.800]All I have to do is put my longing to one side
[00:51.879]Tell myself that love's an ever-changing situation
[00:59.115]Passion would have cooled and all the magic
[01:02.850]Would have died
[01:06.220]It's easy, it's easy
[01:16.930]All I have to do is to pretend I never knew him
[01:22.964]On those very rare occasions when he steals into my heart
[01:30.409]Better to have lost him when the ties were barely binding
[01:37.175]Better the contempt of the familiar cannot start
[01:43.810]It's easy, it's easy
[01:50.497]Until I think about him as he was when I last touched him
[01:57.342]And how he would have been, were I to be with him today
[02:04.342]Those very rare occasions don't let up, they keep on coming
[02:11.343]All I've ever wanted and I'm throwing it away
[02:19.911]It's easy, it's easy as life
[02:38.458]But then I see the faces of a worn, defeated people
[02:44.832]A father and a nation who won't let a coward run
[02:51.598]Is this how the gods reward the faithful through the ages?
[02:58.155]Forcing us to move and they're the hardest things we've done
[03:04.450]They're easy, so easy
[03:11.085]And though I'll think about him
[03:13.619]'Til the earth draws in around me
[03:17.511]And though I choose to leave him for another kind of love
[03:24.146]This is no denial, no betrayal, but redemption
[03:30.364]Redeemed in my own eyes and in the pantheon above
[03:37.155]It's easy, it's easy as life
[03:46.847]It's easy as life
[03:53.351]It's easy as life!
