The Same - Birdy

I’ve tried to be fair

And pretend like I care

But no asset is worth all the time

Spent listening and laughing

To dramas that mean nothing

Can’t find any depth to these minds

Purity lost in vain

And you think I should be the same?

Don’t assume I will follow

And drop all my morals

So you can look good for the crowd

You don’t care about my thoughts

Just the light that I brought

I’m tired of helping you out

They chose to be blind

When lonely and shy

I searched for acceptance at first

Said the traits didn’t match

Now you take it all back

When it adds something more to your worth

Purity lost in vain

And you think I should be the same?

Don’t assume I will follow

And drop all my morals

So you can look good for the crowd

You don’t care about my thoughts

Just the light that I brought

I’m tired of helping you out

All this time you chose never to care

But now you won’t leave me alone

Like we’ve always been close

I’m telling you nothing has changed

Purity lost in vain

And you think I should be the same?

Don’t assume I will follow

And drop all my morals

So you can look good for the crowd

You don’t care about my thoughts

Just the light that I brought

I’m tired of helping you out

You think I should be the same
