Same Story (Cigarette Butts)

Picking up cigarette butts off the sideway
Don't know why
Don't know why I'm surprised
I'm not amazed but all the different ways of life

Try to tell you that there's more to life than music
Don't know why
Don't know why I'm surprised
Well, it's the same story different lines

You can try to brush it off as just another day
Just another day that you got through
The same way people all around are
More or less the same
More or less the best and worst of you

Well, life will tell you
It won't listen
Even if deep
Down down you're screaming
Help please let me go on believing

Playing games to keep safe your fragile ego
Can be hard
To recognise
With the hurricane coming out from the inside

Eyes puffin up from the weight of all you know
That will be
Reality
Can be hard to find
Well it's the same story different lines

You can try to brush it off as just another day
Just another day that you got through
The same way people all around are
More or less the same
More or less the best and worst of you

Well, life will tell you
It won't listen
Even if deep
Down down you're screaming
Help please let me go on believing

Well, life will tell you
It won't listen
Even if deep
Down down you're screaming
Help please let me go on believing

Picking up cigarette butts off the sidewalk
Picking up cigarette butts off the sidewalk
Picking up cigarette butts off the sidewalk
