Words and music by Gwynn Torres and Sid Berger

VERSE
No more excuses, no alibis,
No connecting dots with all those lies.
We both know what’s going on is on
Time to bring it out, just make it gone

VERSE
No amount of blame can justify
No amount of whining or how hard you cry.
The heartbreak feeling cuts like a knife,
No do-overs, this is real life.

CHORUS:
It is what it is,  
It is what it is,
It is what it is, not what you make it up to be.
It is what it is,  (You can’t rewrite it)
It is what it is,  (No use to fight it)
It is what it is, we can’t keep living this fantasy

VERSE:
Bad things happen, that’s just how it goes.
Hoping for the highs, and winding up with lows.
This changes you and it changes me,
But nothing you can do can change history

CHORUS:
It is what it is,  
It is what it is,
It is what it is, not what you make it up to be.
It is what it is,  (Nothing to mend now.)
It is what it is,  (It’s at an end now.)
It is what it is, we can’t keep living this fantasy

BRIDGE
You choose your way and I choose mine
And now it all gets left behind
I never saw this coming,  (You never saw this coming.)
I’m sorry we were both so blind.

REPEAT CHORUS
