How it Works

How it Works

Verse 1
I took a swim through the stars at night
Looking for one to keep me satisfied
But I awoke with an awful fright
The selling point was a myth
Hungover from the sweetest drug
Out into the cold and I been unplugged
Ripped from a bed that was safe and snug
But never seemed to fit


Pre-chorus
Could someone show me how it works


Chorus
Breathe it in, scream it out
Now I'm counting up all my faults
Saddle up, settle down
And the counting, well it never stops


Verse 2
Could you mix me up a shot of peace
Something real to put my mind at ease
Cuz you and all your dubious luxuries
Are poison to my soul


Pre-chorus
Could someone show me how it works


Chorus
Breathe it in, scream it out
Now I'm counting up all my faults
Saddle up, settle down
And the counting, well it never stops


Bridge
Ask me how
Lend me your ear
I'll tell you about it
Where God can hear
Ask me now
Resentment and fear
I'll tell you about it
Make it disappear


Chorus
Breathe it in, scream it out
Now I'm counting up all my faults
Saddle up, settle down
And the counting, well it never stops
