How Do We Do It
Words and Music by Brian Holcomb

How do we do it?
We get up and we live our lives each day-
We somehow hide our pain away

Oh, how do we do it?
We wake up and we walk around each day
When people ask we always say we’re alright, alright
How do we do it?

How do we do it?
We somehow learn to live our fate
We carry this colossal weight

Oh, how do we do it?
We wake up and we live our lives each day
When people ask we always say we’re alright, alright
How do we do it?

It’s something we cannot explain
We each endure a private pain
And though the loss and through the gain
The circle always starts again
And though we ache and try to share
our burden with someone who’ll care
We never find the words to say
We never can articulate
Oh, how do we do it?

How do we do it?
Abandoned by our lovers
with no comfort from another

Oh, how do we do it?
We wake up and we live our lives each day
When people ask we always say we’re alright, alright
How do we do it?

It’s something we cannot explain
We each must live in private pain
And though the loss and through the gain
The circle will begin again
And though we ache and try to share
our burden with someone who’ll care
We never find the words to say
We never can articulate
Oh, how do we do it?
Oh, how do we do it?
Oh, how do we do it?
