What's the difference between you and me?
To me it's kind of small.to you it's like prison
What's the difference between you and me
To me it almost happens,to you it almost isn't.
How did you become so sure?

Your girlfriend never smiles, no one ever calls.
You begin to wonder if they were your friends at all.
You frown, you take a look around.
You shout, this'll never get better.

But the doubt that you grow
In your field is sprouting
Turning your field into a deeper valley

You'd find
(I know you'll find)
The mountains aren't so high
(The mountains aren't so high)
If you'd only try
To do better

It's 9:33 and the traffic, at the stoplight
Somebody hits you, nothing ever goes right
In the gridlock,nothing ever goes right.

But it's just a little scratch, not a permanent scar
It's just a tiny dent, you don't need a new car
It's just a little mess, your dreams aren't shattered
You climb up while I hold the ladder

You'd find
(I know you'll find)
The mountains aren't so high
(The mountains aren't so high)

How many times I've tried.
How many time I've missed and I've tried
How many times I've tried
How many time I've missed and I've tried

When everything's so difficult, I feel so low
But I find a better view on the other side of the window.

So that's the difference between you and me.
What if you believe that the grass could grow
Up through the snow, it's possible

You'd find
(I know you'll find)
The mountains aren't so high
(The mountains aren't so high)
If you'd only try
To do better than get by

You'd find
(I know you'll find)
The mountains aren't so high
(The mountains aren't so high)
If you'd only try
To do better you'd find

The mountains aren't so high
(The mountains aren't so high)
If you'd only try
To do better than get by
To do better than get by
