One and the Same Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Well, they don't hate you, you know they love you
But they're going to come, kill you
They don't mean you any harm
It's just what they do
Could be your mother
Could be your father
Or your best friend
In the world

[Chorus]
But just like blood and rain
Love and pain are one and the same (one and the same)
Just like blood and rain
Love and pain are one and the same (one and the same)

[Verse 2]
You wear a mask with a target
Keep you're enemies closer
You fall in love from a great height
Now the easy part's over
Choose your battles
Not your soldiers
You know they'll show
Their colors
[Chorus]
But just like blood and rain
Love and pain are one and the same (one and the same)
Just like blood and rain
Love and pain are one and the same (one and the same)

[Chorus]
But just like blood and rain
Love and pain are one and the same (one and the same)
Just like blood and rain
Love and pain are one and the same (one and the same)

[Chorus]
But just like blood and rain
Love and pain are one and the same (one and the same)
Just like blood and rain
Love and pain are one and the same (one and the same)

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
