The Same Old Lie
4New song for you this evening. Been writing the music the last couple weeks, finally committed lyrics earlier this afternoon. The guitar is slightly out of tune and my voice isn't as strong as I'd like, but we wouldn't want to make things too easy on me, now would we? Thanks for watching!
The Same Old Lie
by Jeff Bowles (Audiophile)
It’s the same old thing that it always was before
People chant, they sing, and they never yearn for more
But it’s all the same to me, my friend
I am no one’s true and certain end
Nor a model, nor a saint, nor the widening of the gate
I’m the same as you
Who’s gonna love you then?
Who’s gonna be your friend?
Who’s gonna save you from yourself?
Who’s gonna help you know?
There’s only one way left to go
I suspect she will
It’s the same old lie they’ve been telling all our lives
What you need, it isn’t greed, it’s a truth that you can’t buy
But it’s all the same to me my love
I am no one’s sacred judge
While the masses chase and grind to be
You and I are free
Who’s gonna know you then?
Who’s gonna hold your hand?
Who’ll never be afraid to care?
Who’s gonna wipe you blood?
O’er the kingdom you have won?
I suspect she will
