Same Old Story

lyrics

Same Old Story

nothing ever changes and nothing comes easy
I'm innocent but you don't believe me
it's evident so please don't tease me
leave me alone
looking out my window it's raining and and pouring
the same old excuses and the same old story
the sky is grey, the clouds are forming
you've got miles to go
you are the one who tortures me
you drowned me in the water and throw me in the sea
you feed me to the fishes, sail away with the breeze,
now you sail alone, yeah
walking down the same road, you know we don't get far
you got no place to go and you know your falling apart
what you gonna do when the truth gets told? yeah
where you gonna go, when the weather gets cold?
well here I am making an making honest living
trying to do my best but still I end up feeling
down upon myself when the weight is not enough
I'm doing it for the music I'm doing it for the love
even when your feeling all alone
even when your soul is dragging on
even when you got nowhere to go
you got to keep on hanging on
even when your feeling all alone
even when your hope is far and gone
even when you got nowhere to go
you got to keep on hanging on
you let me off the hook once, i know you did not mean it
got lost up in the mix, but I am still breathing
I am feeling good now and I hope that you can see that
well I'm moving on.
you have come so far but now you lost your way
you got no idea, but you'll know some a day
you have come so far but now you lost your way
you got no idea, but you'll know some a day
some a day, some a day, some...
well I learned the best lesson of my life today
he said we can't go on like this
well I stood right there and I laughed at him
then we laughed it off
well I stood right there and I laughed at him
well I stood right there and I laughed at him
well I stood right there and I laughed at him
then we laughed it off
