(2006 / Twelve Stops And Home)

Don't you dig this life
They call the meek
You whose feet are on the ground
And if you get too high
What goes around comes around
And brings you down
Cause people gonna see you
How they wanna see you
People gonna rate you
People gonna hate you
People gonna shove you
People gonna love you
People gonna do whatever
Makes them feel they own you better

Cause everyone knows we're strange
So why do you feel ashamed
Baby
Everyone knows we're different
So why do you feel ashamed
We love you all the same

That's why
Cause if you feel it
And if you mean it
Don't apologize
And you'll be just fine
Cause all they ever need is what you'll give them
Is what you're given
They only put you down if you give them permission

People gonna see you
How they wanna see you
People gonna rate you
People gonna hate you
People gonna shove you
People gonna love you
People gonna do whatever
Makes them feel they own you better

Yeah everyone knows we're strange

So why do you feel ashamed
Baby
Everyone knows we're different
So why do you feel ashamed

We love you all the same yeah
We love you all the same yeah
We love you all the same
So don't you ever change

You're undernourished, and un-encouraged
And under-rated, and unappreciated
The world is turning in a different direction to us
And just look how far you've come
Considering all of the pushing and spitting and stuff

Yeah everyone knows we're strange
So why do you feel ashamed
Baby
Everyone knows we're different
So why do you feel ashamed
We love you all the same yeah

Yes we love you, yes we love you
All the same
All the same


Yes we love you, yes we love you
All the same
Don't ever change
