The Same

Music and Lyric by David W. Jacobsen

How'd we get here
From where we were?
There's a person I remember
I don't think you were her

As the years go rushing by
You don't need to justify
What was it way back when?
I guess it would depend


Who were you
When you were with me?
Not the person
Who I now see

And I know that you don't care
Just who I am today
I accept that you forswear
I know people don't stay


The same
No one stays the same
The scars
And triumphs leave a stain
but you're not the same


Did I ever
Know who you were?
Did I see
Or just mistakenly infer?

I am haunted by a question
How far we diverged
Did you really go that distance?
Is all you were now purged?

Or was it there?
Was it ever there?
And I care?
Though I shouldn't care
That you're not the same


And I know that you don't care
Just who I am today
I accept that you forswear
I know people don't stay


The same
No one stays the same
You leave
Not the way you came

The same
Nothing stays the same
Do I see
Or do I defame?
But you're not the same

When you see an old friend or lover years after you've lost touch and they seem very different, are they really that different or did you fail to see them as they really were? How well do you really know the people you think you know?
