Not the Same Lyrics

On this day where you're so messed it's clear
Can't explain, you're on your own
Anyone who's been
As I walk with you, It chills me so
To hear you say "It's come to this"
Beyond the risk of guilt

In a dream, I always talk to you
You seem fine again, my sweet
Feels alright to me
Is it right for you?
Flippin' out I try to call to you
Do you call to me?
Tell me what to do

And I know it's not the same, there's no blame
Still I bother you
And you say it's not your idea, it's mind fear
Follow through

Come on out I know you'll sing with me
I won't sing to you
It's not a thing I do

Has it been a different feel for you?
Wholesomeness was gone wrong
Or is it something new?
And I know it's not the same, there's no blame
Still I'm bothering you
And you say it's not your deal, it's mine to fear
You won't pull me through
Any way you're not the same, it's the pain
Follow through

It's a lingering that comes through me
Does it come to you?
Are we really through ?

Any guy would do this thing for me
It's not much to ask
Why can't you?

I'm not gonna say I've had my way
You sure saw to that
What else can I do?

You promised so much, lied with every touch
I believed you.

Cover art for Not the Same lyrics by Dinosaur Jr.

Such a fantastic song; I love the obvious vulnerability of Mascis - his voice is all shaky. This song is Mascis cringing out his deepest disappointments to the one that he loves / has loved. He feels utterly let down. Sad, yet a reality for many; I for one can relate to this.
