Behind her smile   She licks the blood off of her teeth   And says she'll stay   Because it's easier that way   Way   And I've had enough   So shut me down or just shut up   I'm sick of hearing your confessions   (Confessions)   I'm sick of cleaning up your messes   (Messes)   If that's the way you are   Then that's the way I'm gonna be   If that's the way you are   You are just wasting away      I'm sinking and thinking   I'll override this (undertow)   Have I been   Relying   Too much on you to stay afloat?   Your funny face   You're leaned against the wall   I can't believe it's true   That you're not you   And you're leaving after all      Time is a bus   That drives itself through all of us   We sag and drag in funny places   (Places)   When traffic's heavy on our faces   (Faces)   If that's the way you are   Then that's the way I'm gonna be   If that's the way you are   You are just wasting away      I'm sinking and thinking   I'll override this (undertow)   Have I been   Relying   Too much on you to stay afloat?   Your funny face   You're leaned against the wall   I can't believe it's true   That you're not you   And you're leaving after all      You say, "I'll stay the same   If you'll just trust"   From me to you and rust to dust   But I watch you walking day to day   Pick up some change along the way   The way   If that's the way you are   Then that's the way I'm gonna be   If that's the way you are   You are just wasting away      (If that's the way)   I can't believe it's true   (The way)   I found out that you're not you   (The way)   You said you'd stay, yes I recall   (You're just wasting)   Oh   (Away)   I can't believe it's true   I found out that you're not you   You said you'd stay, yes I recall   But you're leaving after all
