Different But The Same

by Ben Kweller

Lyrics
Artist:ben kweller
Songs Title:different but the same

There's no time to phone home

When you're racing, you're on time
You contemplate, you gotta wait your own turn
Up the noise with some poison, with great poise
You can't compare it too, or let it scare you through
If everything you do is not as smoothly as we planned

You gotta understand:

There is more for you

But all you gotta do, ooh

Is put yourself with the people
They're the ones who make the world spin
Lust in favor, you can win
And you'll take home the gold medallion

And ride the wobbly wave of fame
That is why you came

That is why you
Came to your senses

To feel it out
And try to kill off every dial

Your mother worries, but no one worries quite like you

And when you start you must rely on your own heart

Cause nothing works the same or takes the blame or wins the game
With your head in your hands in the pouring rain

I wanna see you as you are

Like a lonely star

There is more for you

But all you gotta do, ooh
Is put yourself with the people
They're the ones who make the world spin
Lust in favor, you can win

And you'll take home the gold medallion
And ride the wobbly wave of fame

That is why you came
That is why you came
You gotta be so strong
You gotta teach your son
How to stand up straight
When you wanna run
How to carry on
How to be yourself
To be different...but the same
That is why you came.
