The Way It Is

[Verse 1]

Don't speak

Maybe you should mind your tongue and the lies that you bury deep

Underneath the skeletons of the secrets you won't keep

So sad, oh well

Maybe you should blame yourself

You push away everyone that cares to see you well

[Pre-Chorus 1]

(Oh I wonder, I wonder, I wonder)

(Where were you when I was drowning, going under)

[Chorus 1]

Save yourself, that's just the way it is

I hope nobody does the things you did to me

No, I am not the same as I was before

No, you wouldn't еven recognize mе anymore

Now I'm going through changes

Tearing through the pages

[Verse 2]

Sad and alone

You bend and you fold

Covered in bruises you turn to excuses that you couldn't hold

And now your thoughts keep you up at night

Waiting for the day that your soul turns white

You fall into pieces cause you can't believe this is all your fault

[Pre-Chorus 2]

(Oh I wonder, I wonder, I wonder)

(Where were you when I was drowning, going under)

[Chorus 2]

Save yourself, that's just the way it is

I hope nobody does the things you did to me

No, I am not the same as I was before

No, you wouldn't even recognize me anymore

Now I'm going through changes

Tearing through the pages

(That is just the way it is)

I hope nobody does the things you did to me

No, I am not the same as I was before

No, you wouldn't even recognize me anymore

Now I'm going through changes

Tearing through the pages

[Breakdown]

(Now I'm going through changes)

Changes

(I'm going through changes)

This is just the way it is

[Chorus 3]

Save yourself, that's just the way it is

I hope nobody does the things you did to me

No, I am not the same as I was before

No, you wouldn't even recognize me anymore

Now I'm going through changes

Tearing through the pages

(That is just the way it is)

I hope nobody does the things you did to me

No, I am not the same as I was before

No, you wouldn't even recognize me anymore

Now I'm going through changes

Tearing through the pages
