Never Be The Same
Miami Ink Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Something must've gone wrong in my brain
Got your chemicals all in my veins
Feeling all the highs, feel all the pain

Let go of the wheel, it's the borderline
Now I'm seeing red, not thinking straight
Blurring all the lines, you intoxicate me
It's you, babe
And I'm a sucker for the way that you move, babe
And I could try to run, but it would be useless
You're to blame
Just one hit of you, I knew I'll never be the same
It's you, babe
And I'm a sucker for the way that you move, babe
And I could try to run, but it would be useless
You're to blame
Just one hit of you, I knew I'll never ever, ever be the same

I'll never be the same

I'll never be the same
I'll never be the same
I'll never be the same
I'll never be the same

Sneaking in L.A. when the lights are low
Off of one touch, I could overdose
He said, "Stop playing it safe
Girl, I wanna see you lose control"

It's you, babe
And I'm a sucker for the way that you move, babe
And I could try to run, but it would be useless
You're to blame
Just one hit of you, I knew I'll never be the same
It's you, babe
And I'm a sucker for the way that you move, babe
And I could try to run, but it would be useless
You're to blame
Just one hit of you, I knew I'll never ever, ever be the same

I'll never be the same

I'll never be the same

You're in my blood
You're in my veins
You're in my head
You're in my blood
You're in my veins




You're in my head
I'm sayin' it's you, babe

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Miami Ink's song "Never Be the Same" express the singer's feelings of being completely mesmerized and addicted to someone, to the point where they are at the mercy of the other person's influence. The first verse suggests that the singer has taken some kind of drug that has altered their state of mind and emotions, with the line "Got your chemicals all in my veins." They feel both the euphoric highs and painful lows of this altered state, and their thoughts are jumbled and erratic, represented by the line "Blurring all the lines, you intoxicate me."


The chorus of the song reinforces the idea that the singer is completely under the spell of the person they are describing. They are a "sucker" for the other person's movements, and even if they tried to resist their influence, it would be "useless." The metaphor of being addicted to a drug is continued with the line, "Just one hit of you, I knew I'll never be the same." The second verse suggests that the other person is an exotic and dangerous influence, urging the singer to "lose control." The repetition of the refrain "I'll never be the same" at the end of the song reinforces the idea that this person has had a transformative effect on the singer and that they will never return to their previous state.


Overall, "Never Be the Same" speaks to the all-consuming nature of infatuation and addiction. The metaphor of being under the influence of a drug cleverly captures the intense feelings and loss of control that can come with being head-over-heels for someone.
