This Is How It Goes Lyrics

Everybody is tired and poor and sick of trying

If you see me on the corner

Will you stop or will you splash me

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!



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

Nothing 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



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



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
