A flashlight isn't quite sunlight
But any light at all seems bright when you're looking in the dark
A wet dream isn't the real thing
It isn't really anything but at least it makes a spark
Yes it does

And all is relative, relative
Everything is relative, yes it is, it is

It's all about the way we receive it, how much we believe it
Depending on the life you lead, if you lead it
Compare it to yourself
Compared to someone else you care

If you took the threads in your closet, the cash in your wallet
The color of the skin in your blood and how you got it
Compare it to yourself
Compared to someone else, you care

Pre-made isn't quite home made
But pre-made with a home name is almost just the same
Your girlfriend, isn't your best friend
But any friend is best when you're freezing in the rain

And all is relative, relative
Everything is relative, yes it is

It's all about the way we receive it, how much we believe it
Depending on the life you lead, if you lead it
Compare it to yourself
Compared to someone else you care

If you took the threads in your closet, the cash in your wallet
The color of the skin in your blood and how you got it
Compare it to yourself
Compared to someone else you care

You're either underweight or you're unfit
Over dressed or under zipped, too social or you're just too shy
Too depressed or you're too high
There's night to day and day to night, rich and poor and black and white

All is relative
Everything relative, all is relative

It's all about the way we receive it, how much we believe it
Depending on the life you lead, if you lead it
Compare it to yourself
To someone else you care

And if you took the threads in your closet, the cash in your wallet
The color of the skin in your blood and how you got it
Compare it to yourself
To someone else you

All is relative, everything is relative
All is relative, all is relative
