It Is What It Is
Life House (1x22) Lyrics

I was only looking for a shortcut home
I was searching for a way to escape my problems.

But it's complicated
However, the situation is more complex than I thought.

So complicated
It's incredibly convoluted, beyond my comprehension.

Somewhere in this city is a road I know
There's a familiar path I want to take to fix things.

Where we could make it
It's a road that leads to our success and happiness.

But maybe there's no making it now
However, it's possible that it's too late to take that path.

Too long we've been denying
We've been trying to ignore our problems for an extended time.

Now we're both tired of trying
But now we've run out of energy to keep avoiding them.

We hit a wall and we can't get over it
We've come across a significant obstacle that's preventing us from moving forward.

Nothing to relive
There's nothing left in the past that is worth revisiting.

It's water under the bridge
The past is irrelevant or unimportant at this point.

You said it, I get it
I understand what you're saying and agree with you.

I guess it is what it is
Ultimately, this is the way things currently stand and cannot be changed.

I was only trying to bury the pain
I was attempting to numb my emotions.

But I made you cry and I can't stop the crying
However, my actions caused you significant distress, and I cannot reverse that.

Was only trying to save me
I was only looking out for my own interests.

But I lost you again
Unfortunately, my actions caused me to lose your support.

Now there's only lying
All that's left between us is deception and mistrust.

Wish I could say it's only me
I wish I could take full responsibility for my mistakes and not hurt you.

Here it comes ready or not
A significant moment or realization is approaching, whether we're prepared or not.

We both found out it's not how we thought
We realize that things aren't how we imagined and planned.

That it would be (woah), how it would be
We thought everything would be different and better than it is now.

If the time could turn us around
If we could go back in time, we would try to change things.

What once was lost may be found
It's still possible to regain what we had lost before.

For you and me (you and me), for you and me
It's still possible for us to work things out together.

Nothing left to relive
There's nothing we can do to change the past.
