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've never prayed

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

Cause it's a bittersweet symphony this life

Try to make ends meet

You lend 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
