The Way It Is Lyrics - 1999

[ Buy The Way It Is ]

In a scarlet vision
In a velvet room
I come to my decision
On a dog day afternoon
I'm breaking my tradition
I think i realize
I walk on gilded splinters
I have shaken my disguise

I'm not looking for confrontation
I'm not looking for sympathy
I'm not looking for aggravation
The truth will set me free

I need somebody to push me
I need some gravity
I need to kiss the sun
The truth will set me free
Set me free

Take a trip to freedom
My wisdom is my guide
The world just keep turnin'
From the spirit deep inside
I can't be no saviour

I just wanna be
In my darkest
The truth will set me free

I'm not looking for moderation
I'm not looking for charity
I'm not looking for admiration
The truth will set me free
I need a good relation
I need a tibetan faith
The truth will set me free
