There's no time to phone home when you're
|
Racing your own time.
|
We contemplate, you gotta wait your own turn.
|
Up the noise, with some poison with great poise.
|
You can't compare it to...
|
Or let it scare you through...
|
If every thing you do is not as smoothly as we planned.
|
|
You gotta understand there is more for you.
|
But all you gotta do is put yourself with the people,
|
They're the ones who make the world spin.
|
Lust in favor, you can win.
|
|
And you'll take home the gold medallion
|
And ride the wobbly wave of fame.
|
That is why you came
|
|
To your senses to feel it out
|
And try to kill off every doubt.
|
Your mother worries but no one worries quite like you,
|
And when you start you must rely on your own heart.
|
'Cause nothing works the same
|
or takes the blame or wins the game
|
with your head in your hands in the pouring rain.
|
I wanna see you as you are
|
Like a lonely star.
|
|
There is more for you.
|
But all you gotta do is put yourself with the people,
|
They're the ones who make the world spin.
|
Lust in favor, you can win.
|
|
And you'll take home the gold medallion
|
And ride the wobbly wave of fame.
|
That is why you came
|
|
You gotta be strong, you gotta teach your son
|
How to stand up straight when you want to run,
|
How to care and love, how to be yourself,
|
To be different but the same.

Different But The Same
