[Verse 1] Slide like a spirit down the same old roads Youve been haunting these hills since the morning you were born Now the cracks in the pavement are the cracks in your heart You go over the same old faults every time you walk to the bar Aint you wet when you get there, whether rain or tears or sweat? And the wind shaking the panes, its the same as in your chest [Chorus] Yes, its the same out there As it is in here Its the same out there As it is in here [Verse 2] And why should it be different, should it be anything but that? Should we open our mouths and spit out California sand? We sing what were given into a piece of shit PA We sing Grey Foggy Day, we sing No Change in Me Yeah, but its arm in arm in arm and aint it loud enough to stun? Hearing them all heaving along to the one same song [Chorus] Oh, is it the same out there As it is in here? Is it the same over there As it is down here? [Bridge] So pull your cloak around me now Pull your cloak around me now Pull me close and keep the cold night out Oh, lean into me So youre near to me now Once a stranger to me, but Now youre the song in my mouth [Outro] And you slide like a spirit out to the icy step Feel the night on your face, the mist upon your lips You pull the cloak around you as you listen to the wind And you hum the refrain as you take the hill again
cloak, pull, slide, crack, sing
