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 and dust to dust (If you must) 



And if you want to worship truth 

And be it medicine, meditation or God or the evening news 

Or a fairy tale I sing to you 

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 

By it you learn you will increase 

A million ways to hear its voice 

And you will finally feel aware 

That you're a part of everywhere 



You tell me God is dead 

Well I say God always was 

Life, death, living and dying all at the same 

You know, 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 

And be it medicine, meditation or God or the evening news 

Or a fairy tale I sing to you 

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 

The way of things, there is a way 

By it you learn you will increase 

A million ways to hear its voice 

And you will finally feel aware 

That you're a part of everywhere 



I wanna try to play the way 

That R2-D2 beeps and squeaks and tells you everything 

You know there's so much else to say 

The infinite eternal chase 

The quenching of the thirst 



And if you want to worship truth 

Be it medicine, meditation or God or the evening news 

Or a fairy tale I sing to you 

There is 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 

The way of things, there is a way 



By it 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 

That you're a part of everywhere 

And there's an answer when you pray 

The way of things, there is a way 

There is a way 

The way of things, there is a way...
