Same Old Story
Michael Sweet
I've been wondering why
You hate your life
Spending all your time
Without a rhyme
Discarding love you find
Will you ever know
How sad it is to be
Someone captive
By their anger
On a ship that sails an empty sea
It's the same old story
To darken all The Glory
But you'll cry out in the end
It's the same old story
Today seems mandatory
But someday you'll have
To make amends
When you're driving down
A dark, lonely highway
Do you think of your mortality
And sins you've kept away
When you're lying all alone
That's when you'll see
There's a door that you can open
When you find The Light
The Lock and Key
It's the same old story
To darken all The glory
But you'll cry out in the end
It's the same old story
These days seems mandatory
But someday you'll have
To make amends
