This Is How It Goes

Everybody is tired

And poor and sick of tryin'

If you see me on a corner

Will you stop or will you splash me?

Take a look at what we've become

Nothin' more than silhouettes of

A pretty family on a postcard

Picture perfect

I don't want it

So I hold my breath 'til my heart explodes

'Cause this is how it is and this is how it goes

You can steal my body but you can't steal my soul

'Cause this is how it is and this is how it goes

Shitty weather

Bad timing

Lucky penny glued to the ground

Dirty look from total stranger

Hope you get lost and you're not found

Take a look at what we've become

Nothin' more than silhouettes of

A pretty family on a postcard

Picture perfect

I don't want it

So I hold my breath 'til my heart explodes

'Cause this is how it is and this is how it goes

You can steal my body but you can't steal my soul

'Cause this is how it is and this is how it

This is

How it

It goes

This is

How it

It goes

This is

How it

It goes

This is

How it

It goes

So unscrew my head

And rinse it out

Polish my thoughts

Turn into doubts

Unscrew my head

And rinse it out

Polish my thoughts

Turn into doubts

(Turn 'em into)

(Turn 'em into doubts)

So I hold my breath 'til my heart explodes

'Cause this is how it is and this is how it goes

You can steal my body but you can't steal my soul

'Cause this is how it is and this is how it goes
