The Same

Ever trip on a pavement
And wonder how you fell
How you got distracted
What went wrong, how did that happen

And you're fine but you're shaking
And everybody stares
But nobody close to help you
'cause nobody cares

We all live such lonely lives
Material plastic ties
Commercially satisfied
From birth till the day we die

And I forget to pay attention
You would think I learned my lesson
But the years go by and I don't change
I just complain and stay the same
I stay the same

Do not ask me how my love life is
My love life is my life
And I'm not concerned with definitions otherwise
I'm scared that I love me too much, too much, too much, too much
Can you love yourself too much?

We all live such lonely lives
Though husbands and wives deny
Material plastic ties
From birth till the day we die

And I forget to pay attention
You would think I learned my lesson
But the years go by and I don't change
I just complain and stay the same

I wonder what it would be like if I was different
Wonder what it would be like if I couldn't sing
What if I was born somewhere not American where there wasn't cellphones and I am medicine
What do I do with all this greed?
How much I wanna see myself succeed
How much I want you to see me on TV
How much I love publicity

I'm scared that I love me too much, too much, too much, too much
Can you love yourself too much?

We all live such lonely lives
Material plastic ties
Commercially satisfied
From birth till the day we die

And I forget to pay attention
You would think I learned my lesson
But the years go by and I don't change
I just complain and stay the same
I forget to pay attention
You would think I learned my lesson
But the years go by and I don't change
I just complain and stay the same
The same
I stay the same
