Same Old Story (2005 Remaster)

It's patience trying

When you tell me how to live

Well you don't know anything

Your expectations are wearing thin

You won't even take a look

To see another way

You aren't even listening

Take your ideals and go away

I'm not cut from the same mold

I don't read from the same old story

I'm not cut from the same mold

Don't know who you think I should be

I'm not cut from the same mold

I don't read from the same old story

I'm not cut from the same mold

Done with yours

I'm living my life for me

Tell me father

Did I turn out so bad

Didn't I look up to you

Took every piece of advice you had

Go to School and get a job

Send me on your way

You aren't even listening

Take your dreams and go away

I'm not cut from the same mold

I don't read from the same old story

I'm not cut from the same mold

Don't know who you think I should be

I'm not cut from the same mold

I don't read from the same old story

I'm not cut from the same mold

Done with yours

I'm living my life for me

For me

For so long I tried to understand

The qualities you thought made up a real man

Now it's time for me to find out for myself

I'm getting fed up

I don't need your help

You never listen to both sides of the story

You never listen

You won't listen to me

I'm not cut from the same mold

I don't read from the same old story

I'm not cut from the same mold

Don't know who you think I should be

I'm not cut from the same mold

I don't read from the same old story

I'm not cut from the same mold

Done with yours

I'm living my life for me
