♬ Lyrics

I was told at six years old
They'd avoid me if my heart was cold
Found it hard to talk and speak my mind
They'd never like the things that I would like
'Cause you're told to play, but you're not the same
As the other kids playing the same game
Tried to jump on in, but they push away
So far away
I'm not the same, no
I'm not the same, no
Years go by, I tried and tried
My father asked me if today I smiled
I said, "Yes I did", but that's a lie
Oh, I always tell those lies
And you run and hide, hide the break inside
Do you realise that the light shines bright?
Through those, oh, who broke inside
I'm not the same, no
I'm not the same, no
I'm not the same, no
I'm not the same, no
'Cause you never want to be a kind of person
You can work it for those ones who cannot word it
Because you've been the kind of person who felt this pain
Yeah, I felt this pain
So you're gonna leave the pain and find another way to make yourself another game
Maybe one for all to play
'Cause it's not just me who's not the same
We are not the same
I'm not the same, no
We are not the same, no
We are not the same, no
We are not the ѕаme, no
