This is one of the realest, most honest with myself tracks I've ever written. For all of us, fixing our many flaws can be very difficult. The first step is admitting to them. In this song, you will hear nothing but that. "Same Old Story" touches on my tendencies to only go for the guys that mentally ruined me. Even though now I'm ready to be in a happy stable relationship, my heart still longs for trauma. Backwards, I know. But as you continue to get to know me and my work you will notice that's kind of a reoccurring theme. The healthy relationships I’ve had in the past never seemed to cut it for me. The guys I’ve unfortunately had to dump would be literal angels and I wouldn’t understand why it didn’t feel as passionate as to the guys that have destroyed me. With years and years of work on myself, I’ve learned I don’t need to be manipulated and mentally abused to be “happy” or “content” in a relationship. What I do need is a challenge. Verbal destruction and a challenge are two very different things. It’s taken me a lot of blood, sweat, and tears to understand that but hey, better now than never.
Because of the very simple, lullaby like chords I used for the piano part of this song, I wanted the entire song to sound like a classic music box. Hence why in the beginning you will hear the wind up of a music box (which is the same music box in the cover art), and at the very end the whole song slows down as a music box does.
