We Are The Same

Samantha Crain


How does a river need a bed?
Sole dependency
How do you still need her?
Two souls crippling

You are the one that I am as well
As far as I can tell
We are the makers and the breakers
I think that you should know that by now

Draining fiction from our blood
Pulling music from our notes
Using all our embellished edges
To make for themselves their own

I would never take from you
Without giving back
I would never steal from you
I think you had enough of that

And we
We are the same

When the yelling does subside

I'll come running to your side
Tell you that I'm not afraid
For us to end up like that

I know when I saw your eyes
I knew it was the worst thing
I would need to find her and tell her
All the hurting she put you through

And we
We are the same

That was another time
Another place
That's not your life
You were another time
Another place
Turned into real life

And we
We are the same
