Different Page, Same Story

Verse 1

Dinner table’s quiet, eyes on my plate

They talk about futures, jobs and great grades

I’m just the shadow, the one who’s "off track"

Always the question: "why can’t you be like that?"

Got a corner bedroom, walls a bit thin

Where I don’t have to prove the shape of my skin

They say I’m just wasting the days away

But they don’t see the colours that light up my grey

Pre-Chorus

Headphones on, volume up high

For a little while, I don’t feel I’m outside

Like I’ve found a place where I finally belong

Where it doesn’t matter if I’m right or I’m wrong

Chorus

Yeah, Sean’s yelling loud through the speakers tonight

Making it feel like everything’s alright

Vanoss and the crew, laughing through the screen

For a couple of hours, I’m part of the team

I might be the one who doesn’t quite fit

The puzzle piece they keep trying to shift

But when I pick up the controller, the world falls away

And I’m not the black sheep — I’m just okay

Verse 2

They don’t get why I sit there for hours

Why those voices feel more like power

Than any lecture or disappointed sigh

They think it’s a wall I’m building inside

But it’s a door, and it opens right up

When I hear that "TOP OF THE MORNING" pop up

Wildcat’s growling, Terroriser’s roast

H2O Delirious — still the best ghost

Evan’s chill, Nogla yelling so loud

Lui and Brock keeping it all somehow proud

It’s not just a stream, it’s not just a game

It’s people I look forward to seeing each day

Pre-Chorus

Headphones on, I’m right there with them

Running through streets or a dungeon again

I might be alone in my room, that’s true

But I never feel lonely in what we do

Chorus

Yeah, Sean’s yelling loud through the speakers tonight

Making it feel like everything’s alright

Vanoss and the crew, laughing through the screen

For a couple of hours, I’m part of the team

I might be the one who doesn’t quite fit

The puzzle piece they keep trying to shift

But when I pick up the controller, the world falls away

And I’m not the black sheep — I’m just okay

Bridge

One day they’ll see I found my own way

It might not be theirs, but it keeps me sane

It’s okay that we’re built with different designs

Mine just shines brightest when the screen light aligns

I don’t need to be the golden child

I just need to hear that familiar style

That it’s okay to be you, it’s okay to be different

That even the quiet ones are making a difference

Outro

Top of the morning, yeah, I hear you say

And I’m gonna make it through another day

Maybe I’m different, maybe I’m strange

But I found my people inside the screen range

I’m the black sheep, but I’m doing just fine

Got my favourite streams and my favourite online

Not lost, just on a different page

And that’s okay — that’s just my stage
