Lyrics
Different World
Words and Music by Amber Snider ©2012, Puddle Siren Music Publishing, ASCAP
Last time you saw her was a few years ago. Now she looks so tired, barely knew it was her.
Except for those eyes she has, they pierce right through your soul.
A glimpse of the youthfulness she had so long ago.
When she looks at you, you turn away. She's got a lot on her mind but nothing to say.
You try to recall how you knew her at all. It was a different place, it was a different time
it was a different world now she's not your kind.
He can't escape from his mind, he tries to run he tries to hide
His thoughts keep finding him. He won't let them in, no he won't let them in.
He keeps staring at that wall but if he climbs it he'd surely fall
So he sits right there with no company except for his fear.
When he looks at you, you turn away. He's got a lot on his mind with not much to say.
You try to recall how you knew him at all. It was a different place, it was a different time
It was a different world, now he's not your kind. It was a different place, it was a different time
It was a different world, it was a different world.
I guess I'm tired but I didn't always use to be
I'd rather be admired for something I did or said but that's just me
I do what feels right, despite what you might think of me.
I don't want to fight; I just want to be free.
When I look at you don't turn away, I've got a lot on my mind I've got plenty to say
Don't try to recall how you knew me at all. It was a different place it was a different time it was a different world a different world
It was a different place, it was a different time It was a different world a different world
But I don't care, I don't care, I don't care if I'm your kind because you're not mine.
