Lyrics
Things
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Never guess and never know
Losing everything you own
But just before you hit the red
Your best ideas hit your head
The ones you love will call you back
The regulars will treat you bad
A bolt of lightning from the blue
Now it's really clear to you
Things may not work out how you thought
Things may not work out how you thought
Maybe it is good, maybe it is bad
Either way the only truth we have, is
Things may not work out how you thought
Use a coin to scratch away
Your desperation on display
A different era starts to show
So different friends will come and go
The one you love will hurt you bad
But a stranger has your back
It's sunny when it starts to snow
And that is when you really know
Things may not work out how you thought
Things may not work out how you thought
Maybe it is good, maybe it is bad
Either way the only truth we have, is
Things may not work out how you thought
Things may not work out how you thought
Things may not work out how you thought
Things may not work out
Things may not work out
Things may not work out
Things may not work out
Things may not work how you thought
Things may not work out
Things may not work how you thought
Things may not work how you thought
Things may not work how you thought
Things may not work how you thought
