The Way You Are - Demo Lyrics
[Instrumental Intro]
[Verse 1]
These fingers aren't my fingers
These hands are not my hands
No one sees and no one cares what gets broken
Stuck for time and stationary
Not for rhyme and not for reason
What gets broken
What gets broken
[Chorus 1]
Going far, getting nowhere
Going far, the way you are
Going far, getting nowhere
Going far, the way you are
[Chorus 2]
Going far, getting nowhere
(To tomorrow, to tomorrow)
The way you are
(To tomorrow, climb the ladder)
Going far, getting nowhere
(To tomorrow, to tomorrow)
The way you are
(To tomorrow, climb the ladder)
[Verse 2]
And the rhythm of machinery
Slows to a heartbeat
Everyone preaches, no one teaches
Who am I to believe
Stuck for time and stationary
Who gets broken
[Chorus 1]
Going far, getting nowhere
Going far, the way you are
Going far, getting nowhere
Going far, the way you are
[Chorus 2]
Going far, getting nowhere
(To tomorrow, to tomorrow)
The way you are
(To tomorrow, climb the ladder)
Going far, getting nowhere
(To tomorrow, to tomorrow)
The way you are
(To tomorrow, climb the ladder)

[Post-Chorus]
The way you are
(Climb the ladder)
The way you, way you are
(Climb the ladder, climb the ladder)
[Instrumental Interlude]
[Chorus 1]
Going far, getting nowhere
Going far, the way you are
Going far, getting nowhere
Going far, the way you are
[Chorus 2]
Going far, getting nowhere
(To tomorrow, to tomorrow)
The way you are
(To tomorrow, climb the ladder)
Going far, getting nowhere
(To tomorrow, to tomorrow)
The way you are
(To tomorrow, climb the ladder)
[Post-Chorus - Extended]
The way you are
(Climb the ladder)
The way you are
(Climb the ladder)
The way you are
(Climb the ladder)
The way you, way you are
(Climb the ladder, climb the ladder)
