How It Works

Will you wait in the cab Or will you drive away Put my faith in the moment While I watch everything change 'Cause it's not fair They're not your debts to pay Sometimes I get nervous And I don't know what to say You only know it's leaving when it goes That's how it works That's just how it works If it's coming back nobody knows That's how it works That's just how it works There'll be no sleeping until it goes That's how it works That's just how it works And how to fight the feeling nobody knows You know it's really coming down When you can smell the exhaust Still worry your laughter Is a little bit forced I'm learning to let go I'm building a life Now I can look at the scars And not think of the knife You only know it's leaving when it goes That's how it works That's just how it works If it's coming back nobody knows That's how it works That's just how it works There'll be no sleeping until it goes That's how it works That's just how it works And how to fight the feeling nobody knows You only know it's leaving when it goes That's how it works That's just how it works If it's coming back nobody knows That's how it works That's just how it works There'll be no sleeping until it goes That's how it works That's just how it works And how to fight the feeling nobody knows
