"It Is What It Is"

Yesterday I flew across the world
And started a revolution
Truth be told, I'm tryin' to find myself
In a lovesick evolution

Oh, somebody tell me I'm fine
And that I'm gonna be alright
Oh, 'cause nobody's lookin' to die
When they're happy inside

But it is what it is
And it hurts, make it fast
Well, it is what it is
It gets worse and it lasts
Never had the chance
To promise I'd never let go
You let go
But it is it what it is
And it hurts, make it fast

Today's the day I'm comin' home again
But I'm further and further away, now
I won't leave my bed 'cause a part of me is dead
I forgot to face all your pictures down

Oh, somebody tell me I'm fine (somebody tell me I'm fine)
And that I'm gonna be alright
Oh, 'cause nobody's lookin' to die (lookin' to die)
When they're happy inside

But it is what it is
And it hurts, make it fast
Well, it is what it is
It gets worse and it lasts
Never had the chance
To promise I'd never let go
You let go
But it is it what it is
And it hurts, make it fast

Never got the chance
To promise I'd never let go
Oh, I'll never get the chance
'Cause you'll forever be the reason why
I'm not happy inside

But it is what it is
And it hurts, make it fast
Well, it is what it is
It gets worse and it lasts
Never had the chance
To promise I'd never let go
You let go
But it is it what it is
And it hurts, make it fast (make it fast)

But it is what it is
And it hurts, make it fast
Well, it is (well, it is) what it is (what it is)
It gets worse (so much worse) and it lasts (and it lasts)

"It Is What It Is" is the first track by Mayday Parade after their full-length album "Sunnyland" (2018). It is also the band's first ever self-released music.

Drummer Jake Bundrick says of the single, "It's just about anything in life that ends badly and how it always hurts but you eventually get over it."
