The Record Life - Not The Same

I was standing at the edge of my mind,
trying hard to let some sunlight in.
I tied a kite to the idea of leaving life
and stumbled out to where my brain had never been.
Then I saw her turn around,
and the words fell from my mouth.

You're not the same,
you cut your hair and you changed your name and now
I'm seeing straight on through you.
I'm afraid that you
became everything I hate and now I know I never knew you.
I never knew you.

Blind and breathing hard from trying to climb up to the sky
that lies outside your skin.
But step inside my mind,
I bet my soul you'll find
that you're not the same as you have ever been.
You don't love the live you live,
you've got nothing left to give.

You're not the same,
you cut your hair and you changed your name and now
I'm seeing straight on through you.
I'm afraid that you became everything
I hate and now I know I never knew you.

And you don't know yourself.
You sure know how to sell yourself as someone else.
You're on your own now.

You're not the same,
you're not the face in my picture frame
and now I'm seeing straight on through you.

I'm afraid that you became everything I hate
and now I know I never knew you.
You're not the same,
you cut your hair and you changed your name
and now I'm seeing straight on through you.
I'm afraid that you became everything I hate
and now I know I never knew you.
I never knew you.
