The Way We Are

I watch you growing

Sometimes I see myself in you

It can be scary but kind of funny too

I hear you talking a lot of similarities

Your choice of words

And all the fantasies

Just the way we are

I guess you've seen it now

A mirror of ourselves sure makes us weird

Falling down from a mountain of frights

What's there to hold on to?

The way you make us all smile

And the despair when you just won't go to sleep

You could have me walking a mile to make you smile

Still it's not really a weep

I know you fooled me a million times

I just can't help it, don't know why

Just the way we are I guess you've seen it now

A mirror of ourselves sure makes us weird

Falling down from a mountain of frights

What's there to hold on to?

I know you hate it

But they really have to do what they do

You're crying out your wishes I understand

Yet they don't have a clue

Just the way we are I guess you've seen it now

A mirror of ourselves sure makes us weird

Falling down from a mountain of frights

What's there to hold on to?

Falling down from a mountain of frights

What's there to hold on to?
