That's the way everyday goes
Every time we've no control
If the sky is pink and white
If the ground is black and yellow
It's the same way you showed me

Nod my head, don't close my eyes
Halfway on a slow move
It's the same way you showed me
If you could fly then you'd feel south
Up north's getting cold soon

The way it is, we're on land
So I'm someone to hold true
Keep you cool when it's still alive
Won't let you down when it's all ruin

Just the same way you showed me, showed me
You showed me love
Glory from above
Regard my dear
It's all downhill from here

In the wake of a hurricane
Dark skin of a summer shade
Nosedive in the flood lines
Tall tower of milk crates
It's the same way you showed me
Cannonball off the porch side
Older kids trying off the roof

Just the same way you showed me (You showed)
If you could die and come back to life
Up for air from the swimming pool
You'd kneel down to the dry land
Kiss the Earth that birthed you
Gave you tools just to stay alive
And make it out when the sun is ruined

That's the same way you showed me, showed me
You showed me love
Glory from above
Regard my dear
It's all downhill from here

Don’t let the self slip
Sleeping in a cell, seldom feeding well, belly either full or fiending, pretty Feet in hell
At least I felt it
Felt tip pain, fell from a pink helmet, lips, to a white thin page
Might think grace
But to say it, that’s another thing
Fate shared with Othello
Scared of the fellow with the lungs black and the teeth yellow
If He comes back will he send my mum beneath, below
Or keep her close
I’m the weakest soldier
Just like the teacher’s told, I breathed the smoke
As we were shown,
Reap and sow, repeat, impose defeat
Sober like I’m supposed to be
I believe a father is owed to me
Whatever, I hope he leaves
Stealing daddy’s nicotine
Feeling that a quick relief is all a kid could need
If the green flicker, not a single dream hitting
Letting pretty feet wither
I may shout, but he hit her, that’s where we differ
That’s a thin sheet slither to draw the difference at

Remember life
Remember how it was
Climb trees, Michael Jackson, it all ends here
Say what up to Matthew
Say what up to Danny
Say what up to life immortality

Bending up my Nikes
Running out the melpomene, nicotine
Stealing granny cigs (Take it easy)
Gimme something sweet

Bitch, I might like immortality
This is life, life immortality
