Nothing will ever be the same
All of the promises we made, they seem hollow
But there are still streets in this town
Marked with your shadow

So if you see me, look surprised
If you don't, then just pass me by
And I might even brush your sleeve
As you turn to leave

Now it's hard to act like strangers
When we used to be so strong
Everything is changing
And most of it is wrong
What do we know of anything?
Two fools of some renown
Either side of the same town

Somewhere, there's a light
I can sense it
Oh, though I may fall back again
Although it's a fight
I know I must remain

Now it's hard to keep ignoring
Someone you recognize
And if I seem contented
It's only my disguise
What do we know of anything?
Two fools of some renown
Either side of the same town
Either Side Of The Same Town
