The True One
[Verse 1]
Changes come so quickly, easily it can seem bizarre
They say there's a price you pay for going out too far
You can buy a one way ticket out there all alone
And you can sit and wonder why it's so hard to get back home

[Verse 2]
Nothing is important lost, that's not easy to believe
The longer you're in one place, the harder it is to leave
You can have a thousand cards to pull out of your sleeve
But in the end the loser is the one who does deceive

[Chorus]
There's always a reality in what you are doing
Sometimes it's so hard to see which one is the true one

[Verse 3]
I use to treat my friends like I was more than a millionaire
Spending those big ones like I could afford them all upstairs
But what's been flying high must always touch the ground
Just walk upstairs and ask, you'll be likely directed down

[Chorus]
Into the reality of what you are doing
Sometimes it's so hard to see which one is the true one
There's always a reality in what you are doing
Sometimes it's so hard to see which one is the true one
