Kodaline - What It Is lyrics

[Verse 1] So you're standing in the parking lot of life And you're trying to figure out your fate tonight And you hear a sound coming out of the car radio Saying, "Son, if you don't learn, then you will never know." So you try to drag your feet down to the bar When you startin' to forget just who you are And they told you it was written in the stars But you've never had a chance to look that far [Chorus] Yeah, it's just the way it goes Maybe you die young before you're old Yeah, it's just the way it is Nobody's gonna tell you how to live [Verse 2] In a world that changes everyday It's easy to get lost along the way In a world that's never as it seems Where people try to buy and sell their dreams Where people try to buy and sell their dreams [Chorus] Yeah, it's just the way it goes Maybe you die young before you're old Yeah, it's just the way it is Nobody's gonna tell you how to live Nobody's gonna tell you how to live [Bridge] (It's just the way it goes) (Maybe you'll die young before you're old) (Yeah, it's just the way it is) (Nobody's gonna tell you how to live) (Nobody's gonna tell you how to live) Nobody's gonna tell you how to live Nobody's gonna tell you how to live Cause nobody understands just what it is
