We've Always Been the Same Lyrics

Oh my isn't it strange to play this game

We've got funny little roles and funny names

More than 6000 thoughts each day

Shaped by each one; new moment, new face

We are constantly forming

Karmically entwined

Listener, performer, recorder: alike not by name but by what is inside

Our flames burn the same

Let's dance in delight

Let's wave like the light

And we'll never be the same

Always longing for something

And the ending will never change

Ash to ash and face to face

Slipping skin like the falling rain

Cycling through the endless pain

Taking form and then forming a name

Live to dream and wake to sleep

And I've always been the same

And we've always shared this name

And we'll always be the same

And we've always been the same
