TAPES 1
(Written in 1995)
I could ask you why
You play the same old tapes
Over and over again;
But I realized that I play mine
Over and over again, too.
We're all stuck in a groove
Repeating patterns
Of being ourselves
While we're maturing,
But staying the same.
Why do I keep playing
The same old tapes
Over and over and over again?
I'm so tired of going on and on
Without ever really truly growing
Or becoming a better person.
Life goes on and on and on;
The world's still basically the same;
We're still flowing along,
And we're all still staying the same.
