{Verse 1}
When I was young, the Earth, it burned a gorgeous flame
Gave me a choice, it gave me pain and simple joys
{Chorus}
I’m still the same
I am to blame
I play this game that I won’t win
{Verse 2}
The living dead, they type it out and sing their songs
They scream, they cry, they joke, they laugh, and dream of flight
{Chorus}
I’m still the same
I am to blame
I run this race that I won’t win
{Verse 3}
Lay me down in the clovers on the hill
Such a waste, you can see it in your face
And low and behold, I am not your gun for hire
{Chorus}
I ain’t the same
I’m not to blame
And I will win, I will win
