The more they're so different the more they're the same

Used and let down for a small piece of fame

When trash makes you feel like garbage

The same old suspects are the ones to blame

You knew these people weren't your friends

But still it never ends

Now you see

That your "free" shit wasn't free

They're the only onеs coming for more

Everyone's lеft with the rep' of a whore

Not even a crumb

Maybe they'll throw you a bone

You'd rather eat shit than be alone

When you have a mind of your own

What have the same old suspects ever shown?

Throwing away everything you have

The same old story doesn't make me feel sad

Can't get enough of those that make you feel bad

What's the point of the pain?

The crooks and the victims are wanted the same

Is the still jail any worth it?

As much as you aborted

You gave birth to it

What is it that you seek

Recognition from the desperate weak?

Not the only one who's gonna think it got something to offer

They're gonna take it

Always cutting them some slack

But you know how this is gonna end

Why would you keep coming back

To the same old suspects you defend?

Throwing away everything you had

The same old story doesn't make me feel sad

Can't enough of those that make you feel bad
