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...
