This Is How The Story Goes

And this is how the story goes

You must believe it all, my friend,

from the beginning to the end

'Cause everyone lives forever

We just have to choose where, my friend

And this is how the story goes

You must believe it all, my friend,

from the beginning to the end

'Cause everyone lives forever

We just have to choose where

I said, "Hey, brother, is there anything I can do

to make you feel better from the pain?"

They tell us we're all terminal, but I don't believe a thing they say

They're only words

Science and technology to help us numb the pain

But far beyond any science, there is one thing that I'm sure of

A Virgin had a Son

and a stone was rolled away

So how can we be terminal?

Because He lives today

Well, I've seen this all before, the same familiar faces

Everywhere I look, there's war in unfamiliar places

And do you ask yourself, "Will it ever end?"

When you put your faith in Him, my friend

What can save your life is an illusion

'till you finally come to one conclusion

Just one conclusion

It's only by your own admission

that you'll be healed by the Physician

They are not human hands that touch you

A willing heart and He will come through

And this is how the story goes

You must believe it all, my friend,

from the beginning to the end

'Cause everyone lives forever

We just have to choose where, my friend

And this is how the story goes

You must believe it all, my friend,

from the beginning to the end

'Cause everyone lives forever

We just have to choose where

'Cause the Virgin had a Son

and the stone was rolled away

So how can we be terminal?

Because He lives today

Now you lie here silent

You can't move, nor can you speak

I know that you feel helpless,
