The Same Thing Lyrics by One Less Reason

A Lifetime Burning

0

[Verse 1]
Open your eyes, you've been left
Open your heart, 'cause you know best
Pull close the ones that leave you alone
Welcome home
Write down those words you wanted to hear
Compliments, hit or miss
As long as they're comin' clear
I spent my days contemplating to kill or buy you a ring
Ain't love a funny thing?

[Pre-Chorus]
I knew there was something wrong
I was just to scared to say it
I knew one day you'd finally see
The monster was me

[Chorus]
'Cause I was so busy saying that I was better
You were falling apart
And I was barely together
Bringing up your past, did you feel ashamed?
When I was doing the same things
My whole life you said I wouldn't forget it
God damn, right you know I still don't regret it
Bringing up your past, did you feel ashamed?
When I was doing the same things

[Verse 2]
You spend your nights telling lies to anyone who believes
You spend your days writing plays for your drama kings
Pull them closer so they all feel sorry for you, poor you
Are you sick of all the things they thought you should be?
What you want, what you hope, what you think you will need
That's what I give, that's what I got, that's what I kept for me
Ain't hurt a funny thing?

[Pre-Chorus]
I knew there was something wrong
I was just to scared to say it
I knew one day you would finally see
The monster was me

[Chorus]
'Cause I was so busy saying that I was better
You were falling apart
And I was barely together
Bringing up your past, did you feel ashamed?
When I was doing the same things
My whole life you said I wouldn't forget it
God damn, right you know I still don't regret it
Bringing up your past, did you feel ashamed?
When I was doing the same things

[Bridge]
It's so hard to be right when everything you do is wrong
Singing out it's getting harder to breathe
Starting over when you thought
That you were done, I'm done
Selling out, saving face, you know it all feels the same
When there's no one left, it's just you to blame
Give me sight, piece of mind, a glimmer of truth
Or shut it down with just a moment left of you

[Chorus]
'Cause I was so busy saying that I was better
You were falling apart
And I was barely together
Bringing up your past, did you feel ashamed?
When I was doing the same things
My whole life you said I wouldn't forget it
God damn, right you know I still don't regret it
Bringing up your past, did you feel ashamed?
When I was doing the same things
(It's so hard to be right when everything you do is wrong)
(When I was doing the same things)
(Selling out, saving face, you know it all feels the same)
(When I was doing the same things)
My whole life you said I wouldn't forget it
God damn, right you know I still don't regret it
Bringing up your past, did you feel ashamed?
When I was doing the same things
