That's the way it is
Because life's like this
That's the way it is
Chill out what you yelling for?
Lay back it's all been done before
And if you could only let it be, you would see
I like you the way you are
When we're driving in your car
And you're talking to me one on one
But you've become somebody else
Round everyone else
You're watching your back like you can't relax
You're trying to be cool you look like a fool to me
Tell me:
Why the hell you go and make things so complicated?
I see the way you're acting
Like you're somebody else gets me frustrated
I live like this you
And you fall and you crawl and you break
And you take what you get and you turn it into honesty
And promise me I'm never going to find you faking
No, no, no
You come over unannounced
Dressed up like you're something else
Where you are and where it's sad you see
You're making me laugh out when you strike your pose
Take off all your preppy clothes
You know you're not fooling anyone
When you've become somebody else round everyone else
You're watching your back, like you can't relax
Trying to be cool you look like a fool to me
Tell me
Why the hell you go and make things so complicated?
I see the way you're acting
Like you're somebody else gets me frustrated
Alive is like this, you
And you fall and you crawl and you break
And you take what you get and you turn it into honesty
Promise me I'm never going to find you faking
No, no, no
Somebody else round everyone else
You're watching your back, like you can't relax
You're trying to be cool, you look like a fool to me
Tell me
Why the hell you go and make things so complicated?
I see the way you're acting
Like you're somebody else gets me frustrated
Alive is like this, you
And you fall and you crawl and you break
And you take what you get and you turn it into honesty
Promise me I'm never going to find you faking it
No, no, no.
