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

No change, I can't change, I can't change, I can't 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, no, no...

Well I never pray but tonight I'm on my knees yeah
I need to hear some sounds that recognise 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't change, I can't change, I can't 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, (ever been down)
I can't change it, no I can't change it

'Cause it's a bitter sweet symphony, this life
Try to make ends meet, you're a slave to money, then you die

(LONG VERSION:)
I'll take you down to 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't change, I can't change, I can't change, I
can't 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

I can't change my body (no, no, no, no, no)
I can't change my body (no, no, no, no, no)
I'll take you down to the only road I've ever been down
I'll take you down to the only road I've ever been down
