Verse
I watch you growing sometimes I see myself - in you
It can be scary but kinda funny too
Ooh Ooh Ooh Oh
I hear you talking
A lot of similarities
Your choice of words
And all the fantasies
Chorus
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?
Bridge
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.
