Lyrics Same Sad Story - Dawn Mitschele

Throw your hands up way into the sky
Surrender to the state of all of your affairs
You can't change what's already there

Maybe it's too much waiting there on the sidelines
That kept the ball from out of your hands
No one to tell you you can, but you can

And you're outside, and you're looking in
On the way things could have been different
And you're staring at all of those tattered walls
Screaming inside, hoping that somebody's listening
To your same sad story again

And if all your dreams
They turn to darkness
You've hit the bottom of your well
They say there's only up from hell
But if you can't stand to feel the power of your own hands

You can climb right up
Be back up at the top again

And you're outside, and you're looking in
On the way things could have been different
And you're staring at all those tattered walls
Screaming inside
Hoping that somebody's listening
To your same sad story again

And you do this 'cause you can't do anything else
And you're stuck inside and you can't ask for help
You've got to let go, let go of yourself
Because the world already has too many
Sad sad stories to tell

And you're outside, and you're looking in
On the way things could have been different
And you're staring at all those tattered walls
Screaming inside
Hoping that somebody's listening
To your same sad story again

Yeah, you're outside, and you're looking in
On the way things could have been different
And you're staring at all those tattered walls
Screaming inside
Hoping that somebody's listening
To your same sad story again
