text: This is the moment when
  The gods expect me to beg for help
  But I wont even try
  I want nothing in the world
  But myself to protect me
  And I wont lie down, roll over, and die
  All I have to do is forget how much I love him
  All I have to do is put my longing to one side
  Tell myself that loves an ever-changing situation
  Passion would have cooled and all the magic
  Would have died
  Its easy, its easy
  All I have to do is to pretend I never knew him
  On those very rare occasions when he steals into my heart
  Better to have lost him when the ties were barely binding
  Better the contempt of the familiar cannot start
  Its easy, its easy
  Until I think about him as he was when I last touched him
  And how he would have been, were I to be with him today
  Those very rare occasions dont let up, they keep on coming
  All Ive ever wanted and Im throwing it away
  Its easy, its easy as life
  But then I see the faces of a worn, defeated people
  A father and a nation who wont let a coward run
  Is this how the gods reward the faithful through the ages?
  Forcing us to move and theyre the hardest things weve done
  Theyre easy, so easy
  And though Ill think about him
  Til the earth draws in around me
  And though I choose to leave him for another kind of love
  This is no denial, no betrayal, but redemption
  Redeemed in my own eyes and in the pantheon above
  Its easy, its easy as life
  Its easy as life
  Its easy as life!
