[Intro]

   

 
[Verse 1]


This is how it

 works
   
It feels a lit

tle worse
     
Than when we d

rove our hears

e
      
Right through 

that screaming

 crowd
      
While laughing

 up a storm
  
Until we were 

just bone
  
Until it got s

o warm
     
That none of u

s could sleep
    
And all the st

yrofoam
  
Began to melt 

away
   
We tried to fi

nd some worms
   
To aid in the 

decay
    
But none of th

em were home
  
Inside their c

atacomb
  
A million anci

ent bees
  
Began to sting

 our knees
      
While we were 

on our knees

Praying that d

isease
      
Would leave th

e ones we love
    
And never come

 again


[Hook]


On the radio
   
We heard Novem

ber Rain
     
That solo's re

al long
    
But it's a pre

tty song
   
We listened to

 it twice
           
'Cause the DJ 

was asleep
 


[Verse 2]


This is how it

 works
       
You're young u

ntil you're no

t
    
You love until

 you don't
    
You try until 

you can't
    
You laugh unti

l you cry
    
You cry until 

you laugh
    
And everyone m

ust breathe
  
Until their dy

ing breath
    
No, this is ho

w it works
    
You peer insid

e yourself
    
You take the t

hings you like
           
And try to lov

e the things y

ou took
             
And then you t

ake that love 

you made
    
And stick it i

nto some

Someone else's

 heart
        
Pumping someon

e else's blood
    
And walking ar

m in arm
    
You hope it do

n't get harmed
    
But even if it

 does
            
You'll just do

 it all again


[Outro]

    
And on the rad

io
       
You'll hear No

vember Rain
     
That solo's aw

ful long
    
But it's a goo

d refrain
       
You'll listen 

to it twice
           
'Cause the DJ 

is asleep
