Song lyrics
'Cause it's a bittersweet symphony, this life 
Try to make ends meet 
You're a slave to money then you die 
I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down 
You know the one that takes you to the places 
where all the veins meet yeah, 

No change, I can change 
I can change, I can change 
But I'm here in my mold 
I am here in my mold 
But I'm a million different people 
from one day to the next 
I can't change my mold 
No, no, no, no, no 

Well I never pray 
But tonight I'm on my knees yeah 
I need to hear some sounds that recognize the pain in me, yeah 
I let the melody shine, let it cleanse my mind, I feel free now 
But the airways are clean and there's nobody singing to me now 

No change, I can change 
I can change, I can change 
But I'm here in my mold 
I am here in my mold 
And I'm a million different people 
from one day to the next 
I can't change my mold 
No, no, no, no, no 
I can't change 
I can't change 

'Cause it's a bittersweet symphony, this life 
Try to make ends meet 
Try to find some money then you die 
I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down 
You know the one that takes you to the places 
where all the things meet yeah 

You know I can change, I can change 
I can change, I can change 
But I'm here in my mold 
I am here in my mold 
And I'm a million different people 
from one day to the next 
I can't change my mold 
No, no, no, no, no 

I can't change my mold 
No, no, no, no, no, 
I can't change 
Change my 
No, no, no, no, no 

It justs sex and violence melody and silence 
It justs sex and violence melody and silence 
I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down 
It justs sex and violence melody and silence 
I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down 
Been down 
Ever been down 
Ever been down 
Ever been down 
Ever been down 
Have you ever been down? 
Have you ever been down? 
Have you ever been down?
