Way of the World

Excuse me for getting little over the top

But something ain't right with the theme of the plot

There's a magic that I used to see and it didn't really occur to me

That it faded away

Faded away

Everybody's walking like that ain't got a clue

All of them are acting like there's something to prove

It's a tragic little masterpiece of something that we used to be

That we needed to stay

Needed to stay

So if I'm all blue and they just say hey forget it

Bag it, box it and just push it away

You know that it'll fade and leave you someday

Oh no

No no

No way

It seems like none of them are being true to them self

Got a lot to say but not a lot that helps

They tell me that I've lost my mind

Stuck between a space and time that they gave away

That they gave away

See

The rules they don't teach you how to face the music

Some never learn and then they start to lose it

There's a melody that's in the air and they don't seem to even care

They blew it away

Blew it away

So if I'm all blue and they just say hey forget it

Bag it, box it I'll just push them away

I'll run till they fade, I won't play with their games

Oh no

No no

No way

I'm trying to wake from this fever dream

Cause strange things are happening that I don't believe

And people they just don't know how to deal

Or cope or cry or love or tell what's fake from real

So here I am just screaming that this can't be so

Just take a look inside and see what's got to go

Don't know what to look for

So it stays the same

What's the use in trying if you don't wanna change

So if I'm all blue and they just say hey forget it

Bag it, box it I'll just push them away

I'll run till they fade, I won't play with their games

Oh no

No no

No way

No no

No way

It can't be so

The way of the world

The way of the world
