I'm Not The Same

Lace and Metal Music - ASCAP

I'm here indebted to the love you gave
Alone in the wild of a foolish game
With hope as I forgive the lies
That you yourself will understand
It rained a storm, it thundered and it roared
Around our crazy hearts so torn and worn
We needed love to right the wrong
Desperately, singing the same songs


Chorus:
I'm older now
I'm stronger now
I'm not the same anymore
I'm better now
I'm wiser now
I've nothing to fear anymore
Can you hear me
Can you see me
Have I become someone else
Here I am
Know I am
I'm not the same
I'm not the same...anymore

My mind, it flows like the river of my soul
At times, treacherous, a usual way we've known
Given basics to extreme
We forge a self and call it a dream
Cold but driven, with a warmth on our skin
That feels like fire, all deep within
Red or blue pill, the world's the same
Reinvented, there's still all the pain

(Repeat Chorus)

Bridge:
Hear my shout of love
I have learned
I have cried
But I held on
Now it's my fantasy to tell you
I have grown

(Repeat Chorus)
