Lyrics for Forever The Same

He's in a world of his own He's in a world of his own He'd like the time to play with his mind He'd like the time to go He sees the things that pass him by And the things that he never owned Everyone has and he has not So he lives in a world of his own He cries, he lies He's cool, he's kind He heads out on a Friday night, He gets drunk and he starts a fight And he loses his mind And he loses his sight Because times are hard And money is tight Because he has the pressure He has the blame Life never changes Forever the same He's in a world of his own He has a child but he doesn't know He wanted love, so he loved himself And he's at an all-time low He's in a world of his own He's in a hell of his own He watches the clock and watches the time Watches life slip by on the assembly line And the youth he's never known He cries, he lies He's cool, he's kind He heads out on a Friday night, He gets drunk and he starts a fight And he loses his mind And he loses his sight Because times are hard And money is tight Because he has the pressure He has the blame Life never changes Forever the same Forever the same Forever the same
