No, you can't believe it's true They can't be pulling a fast one You count your blessings But it's never enough Never enough Now you're living life In the pass lane You've got your foot On the brakes You'll never take a risk Never again never again
It's always the same Things fade But nothing ever changes Level the playing field But keep the pieces In relative motion I get it, I get it, I get it
Its always the same These days We live in an ashtray Breathing Smoke No you can't put a facade Between yourself and the truth You've got to break it down Break it Down Break it Down We've been taking losses We should be taking offices We should be making promises We intend to keep
It's always the same Things change But never when you need it You can show us The campaign But no one's ever watching Don't you get it?
It's always the same A lead rain But never on the front page A red stain But never on the hands Of the ones Who Pull the strings
