This Is How You Are

Soon he’s on his way
Soon he’s on his way
And the doctor told me I should know
There’s something that has caused this to happen
All the days and all our nights
Waiting for his eyes to open

Soon he’s on his way
Soon he’s on his way
And it cuts into you like a knife
It tears you up and leaves you on the table
And all this time we felt the life
You take it from us all the while

Here’s to you and to all who’s forgiven
You take another life
We’re too far and he will not listen
This is how you are

Soon we’ll run away
Soon we’ll run away
When you feel like this and no one knows
You try to walk but you just can’t go
I hear him cry, I can’t sleep at night
You help me but I can’t let go

God help me so
God help me so
Well I thought that I was good enough
I guess I wasn’t rightfully so
