BACK IN 1983 WE MET IN SCHOOL FOR PHARMACY
AND SOON MY PLANS WERE ALL BUT LAID TO WASTE
I ASKED IF YOU'D AGREE THAT PILLS WOULD BE THE DEATH OF ME
AND IF MY MIND WOULD SLOWLY BE ERASED
BUT YOU NEVER ANSWERED WHAT I ASKED
I GUESS IT'S ALL THE SAME
BACK IN 1992 I THOUGHT THAT I MIGHT MARRY YOU
SO I SAVED UP AND BOUGHT OURSELVES A PLACE
BUT YOU SAID THAT WE WERE THROUGH I FELT THAT SEEMED A BIT ASKEW
AND I JUST HOPED THAT YOU MIGHT NEED SOME SPACE
BUT YOU NEVER TOOK JUST ONE LOOK BACK
I GUESS IT'S ALL THE SAME
BACK IN 1995 IT WAS A SHOCK TO BE ALIVE
I COULDN'T HOLD A JOB OR PAY MY BILLS
AND SINCE YOUR SHIP ARRIVED IT'S BEEN A STRUGGLE TO SURVIVE
WHILE YOU MOVED UP I WENT ON UNFULFILLED
BUT I NEVER CALLED YOU DRUNK AT NIGHT
I GUESS IT'S ALL THE SAME
SO SINCE 1998 I'VE HELD MY OWN AND PULLED MY WEIGHT
I PUT MY EDUCATION TO GOOD USE
THOUGH SOME FOLKS MIGHT DEBATE TOO COOK DRUGS OFF THE INTERSTATE
WON'T GIVE YOU NOTHING BUT A LOT TO LOSE
