Everything Here


It's all the same

Every single day

Even when we sleep

Even when we dream

 

We can't deny

But we're all so shy

So I'll tell the truth

For my sake and for you

 

It's all the same

And that's no lie

Some like to laugh

But most tend to cry

 

On the inside

Looking outside

It's all the same

It's all the same

 

Everything here

That we hold dear

Is only meant to be

To hold back the tears

 

It's all the same

It's all the same

Everything we fear

Is everything hear

 

We all think

But we don't know

So we're lead to drink

Until we have to go

 

We smile

Until we just can't

Then we take the blame

For someone else's rants

 

It's all the same

But we won't admit it

So we're lead to drink

In hopes that we'll just forget it

 

Everything here

That we hold dear

Is only meant to be

To hold back the tears

 

It's all the same

It's all the same

Everything we fear

Is everything here
