the way it is
Select language to translate this lyric
The way it is, the way it was,
the way it has always been.
Refracted light, dead sea,
bells ainât chiming for victory.
No more shadow, no more light,
no more God on your side
When the dark comes falling from the sky.
Theyâre gonna have rough days,
but memories will keep them moving.
Distant cities burning,
dead trees are falling.
No more hero in the shades,
no more people in the graves
When the dark comes falling from the sky.
The way it is, the way it was,
the way it has always been.
Refracted light, dead sea,
bells ainât chiming for victory.
