[Verse 1] I don't know how I'm going to tell you I can't play with you no more I don't know how I'm gonna do what mama told me My friend, the boy next door I can't believe what people saying You [Pre-Chorus] All the way through the pain there's a light in the darkness Finally found the truth, I'm right here with you You can hide it from the light but you shine in the darkness Times we are Now there's a way and I know that I have to go away. I know, I have to go. It's not time to make a change (away, away, away) Just sit down, take it slowly. You're still young, that's your fault (I know) There's so much you have to go through (I have to make this decision) Find a girl, settle down (alone) If you want you can marry. This would entail pictures of the artist currently playing along with some facts on the side. Whenever RHCP would come on, I vividly remember reading a specific fact multiple times. The fact said something about the song "By The Way" being about a RHCP fan being killed before one of their shows so they wrote it for her (?). The chorus of “Perfect Way” talks about how the perfect way is not enough. The line “This is the perfect way” is repeated throughout the song, but it is always followed by the line “Our life goes on anyway.”. This reflects the idea that even if we find the perfect way to live, life will still go on and it will not always be perfect. It's the only way of getting out of here It's the only way of getting out of here. Take a lesson From the ones who have been there My brain is not damaged But in need of some repair Hold on to the basics But we can't change all our tactics There's no point sitting Going crazy on your own. It's the only way of getting out of here It's the only Apr 27th 2014 !⃝. This song is primarily about Hurricane Katrina and the Bush administration's failure to respond in a timely matter. However, it also has elements of the Deepwater Horizon oil spill (which occurred in late April 2010; the album wasn't started until September of that year). Love's the Only Way Lyrics: Looking out my window at the city below / From my fancy hotel suite / Tell me where the wind blows, tell me how a heart knows / Where a soul can find some sleep / I can o0Z0c.
