Songtext Way of the world Noah Cyrus

Way of the world

The first you learn is grieving and loss
'Cause you can't return to the safe place you lost
From your mother's womb into the chaos of the cold hospital room
When you're a child, they say, you follow the rules
And they send you to church and they drop you at school
And your little heart breaks as you're watching them both drive away

And I cried on the side of the curb
Yeah, the panick set in and it hurt
Oh, but that's the way that it works
The way of the world

As you're groin up, you get faced with the truth
That your parents are people and messed up like you
And the child inside them is broken and still hurten too
You get to the end when your time's almost done
With your skin paper thin and your bones giving up
From the very beginning, you've been going against the wind

And your body goes back to the earth
And your soul to the whole universe
God, I hope that's the way that it works
The way of the world
From the very first moment, it hurts
'Til the day that you're layed in the dirt
Yeah, but that's the way that it works
The way of the world
The way of the world, ooh
'Til the day that you're layed in the dirt
Yeah, but that's the way that it works
The way of the world (Mm-mm, mm-mm)
