Isn't the Same
Chasing Change: Strike Twelve's Reflective Journey Through City Lights
Lyrics
Do you ever feel like it’s for nothin’?
Expressing a sense of futility or lack of purpose.
Do you ever feel like you are stuck, second in line?
Feeling stuck or relegated to a secondary position.
Do you ever feel like you are nothin’?
Experiencing a sense of insignificance or worthlessness.
Do you ever feel like going back from time to time?
Contemplating a desire to revisit the past.
Just to find…
Introduction to the quest for something.
That is isn’t the same, all the faces have changed,
Highlighting a realization that things have changed.
Movin’ steady though the old down city lights where I’d spent most of my nights.
Describing movement through city lights and reminiscing about past nights.
Do you ever feel like it’s for nothin’?
Reiteration of the feeling of doing something for no purpose.
Do you ever feel like you are stuck, second in line?
Repeating the sense of being stuck or in a subordinate position.
Do you ever feel like you are nothin’?
Reiterating the feeling of being insignificant or of little value.
Do you ever feel like going back from time to time?
Repeating the contemplation of going back in time.
Just to find…
Revisiting the search for something meaningful.
That is isn’t the same, all the faces have changed,
Emphasizing the continued change in surroundings and people.
Movin’ steady though the old down city lights where I’d spent most of my nights.
Describing steady movement through city lights and past nights.
But is isn’t the same, all the faces have changed,
Reiterating the theme of change in faces and surroundings.
Movin’ steady though the old down city lights where I’d spent most of my nights.
Repeating the imagery of moving steadily through city lights.
But is isn’t the same, all the faces have changed,
Further emphasizing the persistent change in faces and scenes.
Movin’ steady though the old down city lights where I’d spent most of my nights.
Continuing the depiction of steady movement through city lights.
(I’m movin’ on. I’m movin’ on.)
Concluding with a declaration of moving on from the past.
