It's the way that it always was
The body does what it always does
You know you only last so long
You know you're only made so well
And you'll be gone eventually
'Cause that's the way that it has to be
Time goes by like it has to go
Summer rain must turn into snow
But who says endings must be sad?
Who says goodbyes aren't just routine?
Seems like a normal thing to me
'Cause that's the way that it has to be
When that final moment comes
I'll say, "Hi," and shake its hand
But if I'm still here for now
Don't resist the way things are
Don't forget how good it's been
It's the way that it always was
A robot does what she always does
You know you're stronger than you think
You know you're made to take a lot
And if it doesn't come for free
Well, that's the way that it has to be
It's the way that it always was
It's the way that it always was
It's the way that it always was
