The Same Lyrics - Michael Blume

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 someone not American 

Where there wasn't cellphones and I am medicines 

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.
