The Way

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
