Backpocket and Me Songtext
von Mark Owen

We′re all the same now
We're all the same
We′re all the same now
We're all the same

In this picture
I'm gonna try and get an overview
In this picture
The lines are blurred, but my colors are shining through
I start with a canvas
And think about what I want to achieve
From another angle
This painting′s gonna make a print of me
Choose a texture


A carat gold, the kind fit for a king
But that ain′t what I'm about
So, I′ll take this Earth, and I'll mix it in
Now my painting′s ready to begin
But how big should it be?
A big enough for the mantelpiece of every home
Or small enough for my back pocket and me

We're all the same now
We′re all the same
We're all the same now
We're all the same

I start with the heart, now
The rest will develop from its beat
As it takes shape
This picture no longer resembles me
It resembles every living thing I′ve ever seen or heard
From the heart of me to a flying bird
So, now, how big should this picture be?
Should it fill the world or my back pocket and me?

In this picture
I′m gonna try to take an overview
In this picture
The lines are blurred
But my colours are shining through


We're all the same now
We′re all the same
We're all the same now (everything will be okay)
We′re all the same

It will be okay
'Cause now I know how this picture should be
It should fill the world
But it also should fill me
My back pocket and me

We′re all the same now
We're all the same
We're all the same now
We′re all the same
We′re all the same now (everything will be okay)
We're all the same
We′re all the same now (everything will be okay)
We're all the same

We′re all the same now
We're all the same
We′re all the same now (everything will be okay)
We're all the same
We're all the same now
We′re all the same
We′re all the same now
