What It Is

The flame on a cigarette
Burns through each regret
But it still has time
To set the world on fire
Losing a loved one hurts
Can't put it into words
You'd trade a thousand years
For one more day to have them here

Freefall, you lose your breath
Bucket list gets another check
You can't ever stop
The seconds on the clock
Even the stars fade
Gotta hold on to every day
You never know when it'll be your last
It goes so fast

Everything comes to an end
Gotta roll with what you get
And there's no changing it
That's just the way it is

(The way it is) The way it is
(The way it is) The way it is
(The way it is) The way it is
(The way it is) The way it is

The leaves on a redwood tree
Take flight inside a breeze
And they drift away
To find a resting place
The frames on a well-built house
Eventually give out
Nothing lasts forever
Even when you're holding on

Leaving your younger days
Trading years for another age
But you learn a lot
The longer that you walk
Last chorus of a song
Another minute 'til it's gone
That first time feeling hearing it
Only happens once

Everything comes to an end
Gotta roll with what you get
And there's no changing it
That's just the way it is

It is what it is
It's not what it's not
Everything's gonna come to an end
It's just the way it is
It is what it is
It's not what it's not
Everything's gonna come to an end
It's just the way it is

(The way it is) The way it is
(The way it is) The way it is
(The way it is) The way it is
(The way it is) The way it is

It is what it is
It's not what it's not
Everything's gonna come to an end
It's just the way it is
It is what it is
It's not what it's not
Everything's gonna come to an end
It's just the way it is
