Still Ends The Same

Different start… same ending

Every time it feels new

Like it’s something I ain’t seen

Different words, different faces

Same space in between

It begins with that feeling

Like it might go right

Then it slowly shifts shape

Over time, over nights

I don’t say it out loud

But I know how it goes

Still ends the same

No matter how it starts

Different kind of story

Same place in my heart

Still ends the same

Even when I try

To believe it’s different

It just takes more time

I don’t rush it anymore

I just let it play out

I don’t chase the feeling

Or try to work it out

I’ve seen too many versions

Of how it can unfold

And they all feel familiar

Before they even show

I don’t need to predict

I just notice the shift

Still ends the same

No matter how it starts

Different kind of story

Same place in my heart

Still ends the same

Even when I try

To believe it’s different

It just takes more time

Maybe it’s the timing

Maybe it’s the way I move

Or maybe it’s just something

I keep falling into

Still ends the same

But I don’t break now

I just let it happen

I don’t fight it out

Still ends the same

And I see it clear

Some things don’t change

No matter who is here

Different start… same ending
