This Is How It Goes Lyrics - Singles - 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 post card 

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 goes 

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
