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 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 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 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'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

(Have you ever been there?)
I can't change my mould, I can't change it

Cause it's a bitter sweet 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't 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

I can't change my mould
No, no, no, no, no

I can't change
Can't change my body, no, no, no

Can't change my body, no, no, no

(I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down) 2X

Been down. Been down.
Ever been down. Ever been down...
