How It Goes Lyrics - Billy Talent - Billy Talent

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 

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 

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
