SO MUCH THE SAME
WRITTEN BY

I NEVER PLANNED MOST OF THIS
I NEVER THOUGHT I'D GET THIS FAR
TRIP ON A FALLING STAR
ACROSS THE WORLD AND BACK
SEPARATED FICTION FROM FACT
SAW MY DREAMS RISE AND FALL
SOME I NEVER SAW AT ALL
KEPT MY HEAD UP
EXCEPT WHEN IT WAS DOWN
TIME WAS CRUEL
IT WAS KIND
I SWORE I'D FIND
A BETTER LIFE
FREE OF STRESS
AND COMPLICATIONS
SIMPLE QUIET FREE
HERE STILL WAITING
SO MUCH THE SAME
MY TRUST IS GONE
NEVER AGAIN
ITS ONLY ME I CAN DEPEND ON
BEST I DON'T KEEP ME WAITING
THE TWILIGHTS FADING FAST
SEEMS THE GOOD THINGS
NEVER LAST
BUT EVERYTHING HAS TO START AGAIN
BORN FROM AND END
DESTINED TO BEGIN
IF YOU CAN ESCAPE FROM YOUR FATE
DEVIATE YOUR COURSE
BY WILL OR FORCE
YOU'LL COME OUT AHEAD
PAST THE DREAR AND DREAD
ANYWHERE BUT WHERE THEY SAID
TIME HAS A WAY
HAS THE FINAL SAY
WHEN IT ALL GOES UP IN FLAMES
ITS JUST ANOTHER DAY
SO MUCH THE SAME
DANCING IN THE RAIN
YOU DON'T LET IT SHOW
BUT I KNOW ITS NOT EASY
