The Way We Are


   I watch you growing sometimes I see myself
   in you
   It can be scary but kinda 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 makes 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.
