They don't tell you
When you get older
You'll feel this weight
Crashing down on your shoulders
Between the lies and wasted time
I've been stuck here tantalized by simple times
This shit is overrated
(rack debt and barely pay it)
Is this the only way?
(My moneys MIA)
Life is changing and times a' wastin' and it just hit me now
It's not the same
(no worries way back when)
(that's how my days were spent)
It's not the same
Pack your shit up and leave, get a college degree
Never thought it'd be the same old story
Its all the same shit to me, its getting harder to breathe
Im sick and tired of the same old story
I tried my hand but I can't ignore
The way they take take takeand always beg for more
I feel that weight crashing down on me
And it's never ever going away
Play it in my head
Play it over again
Keep on playing it over and over
Play it in my head
Play it over again
Keep on playing it over and over
Thinking back on times when I felt alright
It always takes me right back to that house on Coal Street
Thinking back on times when I felt aright
I never thought I'd get this right
It's not the same
It's not the same
Pack your shit up and leave, get a college degree
Never thought it'd be the same old story
Its all the same shit to me its getting harder to breathe
Im sick and tired of the same old story
I tried my hand but I can't ignore
The way they take take take and always beg for more
I feel that weight crashing down on me
And it's never ever going away
They take take take and I can't ignore it
And this feelings never going to leave
(going to leave)
I know its not the same
(but it will be okay, it'll be just fine)
I know its not the same
(but I'll be alright)
I know it's not the same
(but it'll be okay, it'll be just fine)
I know it's not the same
But I'll be okay
