"The Way It Goes" lyrics

I wish I didn't have to take
Medicine to think straight
I'm worried I'm poisoning my brain

Why do I always want to leave
Every party early
Just to get home and feel lonely

Are we all just wondering what's next and where to go
What's the point and where is God
It seems like no one knows
I try to keep my balance but what happens if I don't
Does everything have to mean something or is that just the way it goes

I wonder if my mom believes
That she has to be holy
Be the strong one in the family

I wonder if my dad's still mad
At the church that made a good thing bad
Does he resent the world he brought me into

Are we all just wondering what's next and where to go
What's the point and where is God
It seems like no one knows
I try to keep my balance but what happens if I don't
Does everything have to mean something or is that just the way it goes

I feel weird
I'm getting older
I feel scared
I'm getting older
What's the point
I'm getting older
I feel happy
I'm getting older
I feel sad
I'm getting older
What's the point
I'm getting older
I feel lonely
I'm getting older
I feel young
I'm getting older
What's the point
I'm getting older
That's just the way it goes
