This version of "Love's Not Fair" features only the vocal and a single acoustic guitar. Although I am primarily a metal artist, I am planning to do more "Stripped Down Versions" of my songs. This is a song about God's grace; at first, the expression “Love’s Not Fair” sounds like a complaint, but actually, it’s a FACT. Love IS not fair; that’s what it IS, and that’s what makes it LOVE. Often, what we consider “love” is actually quite selfish; we always have conditions with our love: “If you’re nice to me, I’ll be nice to you”, but anyone can do that. What love actually is, is something we CHOOSE to give; and that choice is a lot harder to make when the recipient doesn’t deserve it. To choose to love in spite of whether or not it returns; that’s the same love that Jesus demonstrated for us, and that’s the kind of love that can actually makes a difference in the world. lyrics Verse: Staring at my own reflection through shattered bits of glass
 Showing me the perfect picture of who I really am But when You look at me, You never turn away Kneeling next to me, and picking up the pieces Chorus:
 Why do You care? I know I’m undeserving of the love that You have chosen to share
 It’s just not fair Verse: I am such a useless failure; fallen to the ground Every effort that I muster is never good enough But when You look at me Standing next to me, and holding out Your hand Chorus:
 Why do You care? I know I’m undeserving of the love that You have chosen to share
 It’s just not fair Bridge: If I’d take just one moment Away from my self loathing
 Then maybe I would notice
 That I’m not meant to be broken If I’d take just one moment Away from my self loathing
 Then maybe I would notice
 That I’m not meant to be broken So, stop beating up myself
 You took the punishment Yourself And it’s just foolish pride to think that I
 Could ever hurt myself enough to cover what I’ve done
 I could cut myself dry, and it still would never be enough Verse: It Makes no sense at all Chorus:
 Why do You care? I know I’m undeserving of the love that You have chosen to share
 It’s just not fair But love isn’t fair In spite of all I am, You chose to die for me, and that isn’t fair But love’s not fairmore
