Dom Robinson - The Same

To find a royalty free track, I looked on Jamendo, however, I did not feel satisfied with what I found, so I looked on other sites such as SoundCloud and YouTube, trying to find underground artists that are easy to contact. Initially, I wanted to use a track of Bon Iver's or Lana Del Rey's, however, I realised that it was unrealistic to be able to contact them or receive a reply. So I contacted a less known artist on YouTube - Dom Robinson. He had a selection of very good, indie songs, however, I chose the shortest song on his YouTube channel.

Dom Robinson, The Same

Lyrics:
Do you remember that time, I got lost in your eyes
and I was stuck there for days.
Wrapped in your arms, I fell for your charm,
you'll love me in so many ways.

I still haven't learned how not to get burnt,
getting caught too close to the flame.

But if someone like you makes me feel like I do,
I need to know that they feel the same.

I know this seems strange but I'm not gonna change,
just push past my faults and my flaws.

You said you could see yourself happy with me,
but that's just not enough any more.

I told you I refuse to move on, what's the use,
when you put all the others to shame

If you were the last,
I'd be happy with that,
but only if you feel the same.

I make promises to
look after you,
and love you so delicately

but from what I've seen
you're stuck somewhere between
mossing out, and missing me.

You put up a guard so that no one could see,
well maybe you're not to blame.

To hide all the scars that make you who you are,
maybe I was exactly the same.

Maybe I was exactly the same.
Maybe we are exactly the same.
