 The Same 
Music and Lyric by David W. Jacobsen

How'd we get here 
From where we were? 
There's a person I remember 
I don't think you were her 
 
As the years go rushing by 
You don't need to justify 
What was it way back when? 
I guess it would depend   
 
 
Who were you  
When you were with me? 
Not the person 
Who I now see 
 
And I know that you don't care 
Just who I am today 
I accept that you forswear 
I know people don't stay 
 
 
 
The same 
No one stays the same 
The scars 
And triumphs leave a stain  
but you're not the same 
 
 
Did I ever 
Know who you were? 
Did I see  
Or just mistakenly infer? 
 
I am haunted by a question 
How far we diverged 
Did you really go that distance? 
Is all you were now purged? 
 
 
Or was it there? 
Was it ever there? 
And I care? 
Though I shouldn't care 
That you're not the same 
 
 
And I know that you don't care 
Just who I am today 
I accept that you forswear 
I know people don't stay 
 
 
 
The same 
No one stays the same 
You leave 
Not the way you came 
 
The same 
Nothing stays the same 
Do I see 
Or do I defame? 
But you're not the same 
 
When you see an old friend or lover years after you've lost touch and they seem very different, are they really that different or did you fail to see them as they really were?  How well do you really know the people you think you know?
