Inner Dialogues

What Changed

The words are familiar. The person hearing them is not quite the same.

Indie rock · reflectiveLyrics by Thomas LukaschewskiOriginal language: English

Verse 1

Used to argue late at night
Like everything was black and white
Had the answers in my head
Knew exactly where I’d stand

Now I hear the same debates
But they land a different way
And I don’t know when it all changed
Or what those words even say

Chorus

It’s all the same, or so it seems
The same old words, the same old schemes
But something shifts in how they land
And I don’t hear them like I planned

The things I swore I’d never say
Don’t sound so far from me today
And I can’t tell if I have changed
Or something inside rearranged

Verse 2

Morning paper, coffee cold
Skimming stories I’ve been told
Somewhere in between the lines
I don’t feel the same this time

Words I held in open hands
Now feel altered when they land
And I don’t know what that means
But it shows in how I read

Chorus

It’s all the same, or so it seems
The same old words, the same old schemes
But something shifts in how they land
And I don’t hear them like I planned

The things I swore I’d never say
Don’t sound so far from me today
And I can’t tell if I have changed
Or something inside rearranged

Bridge

I thought the lines I drew would stay
Like something fixed beyond debate
But now the words I threw away
Come back to me in altered state

Final Chorus

It’s all the same, or so it seems
The same old words, the same old schemes
But something shifts in how they land
And I don’t hear them like I planned

The things I swore I’d never say
Don’t sound so far from me today
And I can’t tell if I have changed
Or something inside rearranged

Outro

I thought what I believed was true
Something I could hold onto
