This is how it works It feels a little worse Than when we drove our hearse Right through that screaming crowd While laughing up a storm Until we were just bone Until it got so warm That none of us could sleep And all the styrofoam Began to melt away And we tried to find some worms To aid in the decay But none of them were home Inside their catacomb A million ancient bees Began to sting our knees While we were on our knees Praying that disease Would leave the ones we love And never come again And on the radio We heard "November Rain" That solo's really long But it's a pretty song We listened to it twice 'Cause the DJ was asleep He was asleep No, this is how it works You're young until you're not And you love until you don't And you try until you can't You laugh until you cry And you cry until you laugh And everyone must breathe Until their dying breath No, this is how it works You peer inside yourself You take the things you like And try to love the things you took Then you take that love you made And you stick it into Someone else's heart Pumping someone else's blood And walking arm in arm You hope that don't get harmed But even if it does You'll just do it all again And on the radio We hear "November Rain" And that solo's awfully long But it is a good refrain We listen to it twice 'Cause the DJ is asleep He is asleep On the radio The DJ is asleep He is asleep

Well, I'd pay to find you in our story Where our souls intertwine in glory I can feel you in my spirit My heart is bruised and you're my healing Blood Blood and water Blood Blood and water Blood Blood and water Blood Blood and water

You are the only light I see It's like I've been driving in darkness and You are the only guide I need You make me wanna be someone I never knew what better was The day passes slowly Like it's happening to me You make me wanna be someone You are the only light I see It's like I've been driving in darkness and You are the only guide I need In the passenger seat One eye on me Now it's like Don't wanna go to sleep You are the only light I need Don't wanna go to sleep Don't wanna go to sleep You are the The only I don't wanna go to sleep Please don't leave Please don't leave I don't wanna go to sleep

Take my hand Don't let go While the snowflake stands Will you take my hand? Stay with me Never leave On the cold, dark Eve Will you stay with me? I've got to be somewhere and I feel the cold night air now Rushing through my head Shivers, shivers, shivers down my spine All the streets are shining I guess that it's that timing I pretend I'm fine but I know I'm not Don't know why I'm nervous, and I I think I deserve this, 'cause I'm Always complicating every little thing, yeah Do you feel lonely with me? I can do better, you see Don't let go, don't let us lose what could have been Take my hand Don't let go While the snowflake stands Will you take my hand? Stay with me Never leave On the cold, dark Eve Will you stay with me? I've been out so long that I'm Used to being alone, and I I don't know what loving is But I think it's time that changed Tired of holding just a pillow See life unravel through a window I know that I'm better Don't know why I'm nervous, and I I think I deserve this, 'cause I'm Always complicating every little thing, yeah Do you feel lonely with me? I can do better, you see Don't let go, don't let us lose what could have been Take my hand Don't let go While the snowflake stands Will you take my hand? Stay with me Never leave On the cold, dark Eve Will you stay with me?

I remember when I was three Cried to my momma scared that death was out to get me Up on the counter she dried my tears Said, "Don't you worry, when it comes you will be ready" When things get a bit too heavy Then I tell myself The world can also be so pretty I know it can drive you crazy Try to baby Save your troubles for another day Stop and smell the flowers baby Give yourself some time and you'll see everything It'll be alright Crossing bridges Before I get there Somehow the sweetest things they always turn to bitter On a good day I count the hours The skies are blue But I know soon enough they'll pour People think I get too heavy Yeah they always say... The world can also be so pretty I know it can drive you crazy Try to baby Save your troubles for another day Stop and smell the flowers baby Give yourself some time and you'll see everything It'll be alright Give yourself some time and you'll see everything Give yourself some time and you'll see everything it'll be alright
