Nothing Stays the Same
I’ve talked to the ladies down the walkI've drunk in tattoos that have brought the world to my eyesUnderstanding opens doorsTo the intricate weave of how good tomorrow could be
Been doused in elixir to numb my painsAnd black and white thoughts have all bowed to meAs I’ve walked through their unlit corridorsAnd weak as I am you’re like an angel standing by me
When sorrow calls my nameI know nothing stays the same
I've talked to the men of high regardIn rooms ever white and my soul grew dark by their wordsSoftly sweet as kissing lipsA kaleidoscope of no consolation at all
I've bargained my bit with fate and allWith no preconceptions of immortalityI rolled the dice uncompromisedAnd lost as I am you're my good samaritan
When sorrow calls my nameI know nothing stays the same
