The Way of This World
I open my eyes at the break of dawn
smiling wide while others mourn
Is it a privilege to see the light of day?
Two things in life are sure they say
A hungry man wanders the streets
A child is missing, a mother weeps
Are those tears of joy or tears of grief?
We stand firmly in what we believe
A life ends while new ones begin
Yes, some you lose and some you win
Then we ask ourselves why, oh why
didn’t I tell the truth, why did I lie?
CHORUS:
That’s just the way of this world
That’s just life, they say
Call it normal, call it natural
Call it fate, call it God’s will
Everything happens for reason
That’s just the way of this world
It’s in with the new and out with the old
Today it’s hot, tomorrow will be cold
I saw you again after a very long time
Now I know you’ll never be mine
We know what is right and wrong
where we fit in, where we don’t belong
We hear a gunshot, people require more
we don’t know what tomorrow has in store
In the end, we’re still looking for an answer
I really need to know, please tell me, sir
What is life and why are we here?
Why is there still no bloody cure?
CHORUS
