One hand will take, one hand will give That's all we know and that is how we live One day hello, next day goodbye And everyone just stay high Same old story, same old song Goes all right till it goes all wrong Now you're going, then you're gone Same old story, same old song One builds you up, one tears you down To some you're a saint, to others you're a clown What can you do, just see it through And hold on to what is left to you Same old story, same old song Goes all right till it goes all wrong Now you're going, then you're gone Same old story, same old song
