That's the way everyday goes Every time we have no control If the sky is pink and white If the ground is black and yellow It's the same way you showed me Nod my head, don't close my eyes Halfway on a slow move It's the same way you showed me If you could fly then you'd feel south Up north's getting cold soon The way it is, we're on land So I'm someone to hold true Keep you cool when it's still alive Won't let you down when it's all ruin Just the same way you showed me, showed me You showed me love Glory from above Regard my dear It's all downhill from here In the wake of a hurricane Dark skin of a summer shade Nose dive in the flood lines Tall tower of milk crates It's the same way you showed me Cannonball off the porch side Older kids trying off the roof Just the same way you showed me (you showed) If you could die and come back to life Up for air from the swimming pool You'd kneel down to the dry land Kiss the Earth that birthed you Gave you tools just to stay alive And make it out when the sun is ruined That's the same way you showed me, showed me You showed me love Glory from above Regard me dear It's all downhill from here
