This Is How It Goes

[Verse 1]

Everybody is tired

And poor and sick of trying

If you see me on a corner

Will you stop or will you splash me?

[Pre-Chorus]

Take a look at what we've become

Nothing more than silhouettes of

A pretty family on a postcard

Picture perfect, I don't want it!

[Chorus]

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

[Verse 2]

Shitty weather, bad timing

Lucky penny glued to the ground

Dirty look from total stranger

Hope you get lost and you're not found

[Pre-Chorus]

Take a look at what we've become

Nothing more than silhouettes of

A pretty family on a postcard

Picture perfect, I don't want it!

[Chorus]

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—

[Post-Chorus]

This is, how it, it goes!

This is, how it, it goes!

This is, how it, it goes!

This is, how it, it goes!

[Bridge]

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!)

[Chorus]

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
