Same As the Old Me

so it goes, so you know
i gave everything i got to give
then lo, still got to let go
of every little lie you live
but something you said still ran space in my head
like i got nothing better left to do
with everyone trying hard to defy
every seedy little piece of you

the same as you told me
just something you sold me
like the sediment you left inside
the same as the cold sea
the same as the old me
so says the evidence you left... behind

wandering, wondering how
still i wonder what your on about
who could win out, who could you count
beyond a shadow of my shadowed doubt
but something youve shown
something bearing the bone
has got me waiting till the bitter end
of the lies and bullshit that you hide
behind the curtain begin to defend

the same as you told me
just something you sold me
like the sediment you left inside
the same as the cold sea
the same as the old me
so says the evidence you left behind

and it says all of the pieces you stole
had your hands tied behind your back with a bow
though its easier everybody knows
to let go

the same as you told me
same as you sold me
like the sediment you left inside
same as the cold sea
same as the old me
so says the evidence you left behind
