Cos' it's a bittersweet symphony that's life
Trying to make ends meet you're a slave to the 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 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 no no (have you ever been down?)
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 airwaves are clean and there's nobody singing to me now

Cos' it's a bittersweet symphony that's life
Trying to make ends meet, trying 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 veins meet yeah
