Sameness

Have you ever felt confused in your thinking And thought your views on life may be all wrong That the group of friends which you had known for some years Is not the group to which you should belong. Those that you looked up to for many Seasons Are now the people you do not admire You've grown apart from them in your ways and your thinking Of sameness most people do seem to tire. In the pubs and clubs they frequent they dwell on the same subjects Themselves, their family and sports, work and football Nowadays you find such subjects rather boring And sameness does not interest you at all. You do not see in work and money status And you are far more spiritually aware And yet you envy them their happiness in their sameness Though with them not much in common you do share. It is not that you are snobbish and conceited Though far apart from them in ways you've grown They do not see you now as one of their group And no longer claim you as one of their own.
