'Cause it's a bittersweet symphony
that's life (oh-oh, ooh-ooh)
Tryna make ends meet,
you're a slave to the money,
then you die (oh-oh, hoo-ooh)
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't change, I can't change
I can't change
But I'm here in my mould
I am here in my mould
But I'm a million different people
From one day to the next
I can't change my mould, no, no
No, no, no
Well, I've never prayed
But tonight I'm on my knees, yeah
I need to hear some sounds that
Recognize the pain in me, yeah
No change, I can't change, I can't change
I can't change
But I'm here in my mould
I am here in my mould
And I'm a million different people
From one day to the next
I can't change my mould, no, no
No, no, no
'Cause it's a bittersweet symphony
that's life (oh-oh, ooh-ooh)
Tryna make ends meet, tryna find some money,
then you die (oh-oh)
I'll take you down the only road
I've ever been down
I'll take you down the only road I've ever been
