F             G
Say it's the same sun
Dm
Spinning in the same sky
F             G
Say it's the same stars

   Dm
Streaming in the same night
F                 G
Tell me it's the same world
Whirling through the same space
Tell me it's the same time
Tripping through the same day
So say it's the same house
And nothing in the house has changed
Yeah, say it's the same room
And nothing in the room is strange
Oh, tell me it's the same boy
Burning in the same bed
Tell me it's the same blood
Breaking in the same head
Say it's the same taste
Taking down the same kiss

Chorus:
F             G
Say it's the same you
              Dm
Say it's the same you
                            C
And it's always been like this
              G
Say it's the same you
              Dm
Say it's the same you
And it'll always and forever is
Say it's the same you
Say it's the same you
And it's always been like this
Say it's the same you
Say it's the same you
And it'll always and forever is
Say it's the same you
Say it's the same you

Yeah tell me it's all the same
This is how it's always been
But if nothing has changed
Then it must mean
But the sun is cold, the sky is wrong
The stars are black, the night is gone
The world is still, the space is stopped
The time is out, the day is dropped
The house is dark, the room is scarred
The boy is stiff, the bed is hard
The blood is thick, the head is burst
The taste is dry, the kiss is thirst

Chorus:
And it's not the same you
It's not the same you
No it never was like this
It's not the same you
It's not the same you
And it never really is
It's not the same you
It's not the same you
No it never was like this
It's not the same you
It's not the same you
And it never really is
It's not the same you
It's not the same you

Oh it's not the same
This isn't how it's always been
Everything has to have changed
Or it's me
Huh
