it is what it is
Talking to the wall 'cause, at least, I hear an echo
Ooh, oh-oh (ooh-ooh, oh-oh)
Carrying my cross 'til my spirit has to let go
Ooh, oh-oh (ooh-ooh, oh-oh)
Gave up finding one good reason
I'll stop trying to stop this breathin', no-oh
Runnin' out of all these alibis
(Do they ask me how I'm holding on?)
I can feel me cavin' in
And now all that I can say
It is, it is, it is what it is
All the things I couldn't change
I lay with someone else's sins
Let my soul just fly away
All the way up to Heaven's light
I pound those gates with no reply
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
I feel everything and nothin' at the same time
(Oh, don't slow down)
Oh, the pain is so exquisite I don't even ask why
(Oh, but here's your call)
You're walking on the water that I'm drowning in
Thought I heard a whisper, was it just the wind again
Or the trail of blood I'm following?
(Following, following, following) mm-hm
And if I'm the one to blame
I guess all that I could say
It is, it is, it is what it is (ooh)
All the things I couldn't change
I lay with someone else's sins (ooh)
Let my soul just fly away
All the way up to Heaven's light
I pound those gates with no reply
Hey (oh), oh
Oh, when I grow numb, but I can't weep
Wake up, but I don't sleep
And I didn't choose this hell
Oh, when I'm the wolf from all the sheep
Wake up, but I don't sleep
Father, save me from myself (ooh)
Oh, no
Hm-mm
It is, it is, it is, it is
Hm, yeah
And my throats gone down
My words go dry
But you alone keep me alive
It is, it is, it is what it is
Ooh, oh-oh (ooh-ooh, oh-oh)
Carrying my cross 'til my spirit has to let go
Ooh, oh-oh (ooh-ooh, oh-oh)
Gave up finding one good reason
I'll stop trying to stop this breathin', no-oh
Runnin' out of all these alibis
(Do they ask me how I'm holding on?)
I can feel me cavin' in
And now all that I can say
It is, it is, it is what it is
All the things I couldn't change
I lay with someone else's sins
Let my soul just fly away
All the way up to Heaven's light
I pound those gates with no reply
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
I feel everything and nothin' at the same time
(Oh, don't slow down)
Oh, the pain is so exquisite I don't even ask why
(Oh, but here's your call)
You're walking on the water that I'm drowning in

My words go dry
But you alone keep me alive
It is, it is, it is what it is
