Lyrics

The Same


I was a girl
I was the only kid in the world, I thought I knew
What it meant to you
But I'm wrong
I'm wrong, I'm wrong

I'm not okay
In fact, I'm sick today, I'm on the floor
It's such a bore
It's nothing new to you

I'll be downstairs, let me do my hair
And put my makeup on, it feels so wrong
You say "Rock on"
I'm not the same

Everybody wants you, yeah
Everybody loves you
Your smile, your teeth, your hair
They don't know you're not there
They don't know you're not there

Too fast, too slow, too late
You are never gonna make it
You're never gonna make it

I'm not the same
