Ariel Rechtshaid - The Way It's Always Been lyrics

[Verse 1] They shut down the Golden Sahara Hotel Jessica says it won't be long 'til they blow it all to hell She's standing in the front yard cut off and skins Me and her brother we been friends, since I can't remember when [Chorus 1] Ain't that the way it's always been? Everybody sittin' around waiting for the sun to come again A shift at the chemical plant, a white wedding dress I wake up every morning and I wonder if I'm gonna pa** the test [Verse 2] Just try to live up to, what she's got in mind Sometimes the pressure's so heavy I feel like leaving it all behind me [Chorus 2] Ain't that the way that it's always been? Laying low just long enough for the dust to settle down The black and the white, the thick and the thin And hoping that He's really got the power to save us from these sins Everybody sittin' around waiting for the sun to come again [Bridge] I took a long walk yesterday (yesterday) To a field where I used to play I saw myself in the corner of my mind I was twelve years old and blind To the big wheel and the grind [Chorus 3] Ain't that the way that it's always been? Standin' at the water's edge waiting for the fog to clear Tackle or touch, you sink or you swim And hoping that he's really got the power to save us from these sins Everybody sittin' around waiting for the sun to come again They're waiting for the sun to come again
