Some fight and some run
She won't do either one
Been froze for some months
Can't decide what she wants
There's no face to the threat
Just feelin' like the future's got its boot on her neck
It's no good
This college town worked for comin' up
And it's still fun if you forget you aren't young enough
Some nights still she thought she could
Said that she would but always ditched the plan
A different job a different man a different understanding
She'd take any
They're not gettin to her where she landed
Saw her last week at the co op
Said she was tired of the same old
I said go off
Same old same old
Been callin' it livin'
Punch in punch out then lay low
Same old same old
I want more than I'm gettin
Can't taste what keeps my plate full
I will never learn
I will never learn
That's what he said
As he was laughin'
And his heater burned
Took an L
Oh well
Cant be concerned
Dust it off pay a quarter
Take another turn
Yeah the swagger works well
When the buzz is on
But the morning's still hell
If your lovers gone
Another one seemed to read the same script
The reason's a glitch
He can't seem to fix
It was late and not my place
To really chase it down
I just gassed him up
And paid for another round
It's a circus out here
So we play the clown
Might take a hundred rodeos
To straighten out
Same old same old
And it still isn't hittin'
Two levels below grateful
Same old same old
Man I thought I was different
Still hopeful if not faithful
Same spot
Everywhere I move
Can't stop
Doin what I do
Too much
Steady in my lane
Forever interlude
Dont know what to change
Or who to change into
Sittin' in gridlock
Shoppin' at the big box store
Needin' way less chores
And more room
Hummin' on that same flat tune
All the same facts true
In my plain black shoes
All through the
Same old same old
It isn't fittin the vision
Plugged in played out like pay phones
Same old same old
I take what I'm given
Most stoked when I can stay home
