The Way Lyrics - Bridge - Blues Traveler

Nobody told me it would be good 

But I still wanted it to be 

Do your homework like you should 

Hoping something sets you free, what'll it be 

Afraid of ultimate decay 

Never stopping but to rust 

Eager to get it underway 

Ashes to ashes, dust to dust, if you must 

And if you want to worship truth 

Be it medicine, meditation 

Or God on the evening news 

Or a fairy tale I might sing to you 

But as you learn you will increase 

You will affect your own release 

A million ways to hear its voice 

And in the end you've got no choice 

You will finally feel aware 

Of what you're part of everywhere 

And there's an answer when you pray 

The way of things, there is a way 

The way of things, there is a way 

You tell me god is dead 

Well, I say God always was life and death 

Living and dying all at once 

That's all it ever does 

Could be god is our idea 

And ideas never die 

Created in its image 

We seek its light from up on high, give it a try 

And if you want to worship truth 

Be it medicine, meditation 

Or God on the evening news 

Or a fairy tale I might sing to you 

But as you learn you will increase 

You will affect your own release 

A million ways to hear its voice 

And in the end you've got no choice 

You will finally feel aware 

Of what you're part of everywhere 

And there's an answer when you pray 

The way of things, there is a way 

The way of things, there is a way 

I wanna try to play the way 

Like R2-D2 squeaks and beeps and tells me everything 

You know there's so much else to say 

That the only way to even try is to just to start your riffing 

Is it the chicken or the egg 

It's the very notion to even try to figure out which one came first 

I hate to see somebody beg 

The infinite eternal chase, the quenching of the thirst 

And if you want to worship truth 

Be it medicine, meditation 

Or God on the evening news 

Or a fairy tale I might sing to you 

But as you learn you will increase 

You will affect your own release 

A million ways to hear its voice 

And in the end you've got no choice 

You will finally feel aware 

Of what you're part of everywhere 

And there's an answer when you pray 

The way of things, there is a way 

The way of things, there is a way 

There is a way 

There is a way 

There is a way
