He gets his information
From overhearing conversations
Doesn't ask questions
Doesn't learn any lessonsAnd he keeps his mouth shut
'Til he bowls over and he blows up
And then he can't form his words right
They don't fit together so tightAnd I hope to God
That He will find his name
And not listen to his so-called friends
When they so boldly sayThis is the way that you are
Don't let them say
This is the way that you areShe doesn't have much to say
About yesterday
Or what happened to her
When she was eightSo she drinks a lot
And it her makes feel okay
For the moment
But it's gone when she awakesAnd I hope you know that
Someone out there loves you
So dont give yourself away
And dont listen to them when they sayThis is the way that you are
Don't let them say
This is the way that you are
NoThis is the way that you are
Don't let them say
This is the way that you areDon't let them say
This is the way, this is the way
This is the way that you areDon't let them say
This is the way
This is the way that you are
