I noticed you were sleeping I was walking down the tunnel Why's the reason why I've had to struggle Then I got to thinking, y'know what are the reasons What could be worth all this trouble I've my end of the easy ride My easy life Didn't ever know the world isn't on my side It's no lie We've heard it all before In the constant state of war* They all said things work out that way That the beauty and & pain No it isn't all the same But I've got one that has to change See, I made up my mind My excuses left behind From now on, things work out my way Things work out my way Things work out my way (yeah) Well we've heard it all before In the constant state of war* They all said things work out that way The beauty & the pain No, it isn't all the same But I got one that has to change See, I made up my mind My excuses left behind From now on, things work out my way Things work out my way
