'Cause it's a bitter sweet symphony, this life
Trying 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, 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

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, no, no
(Have you ever been down?)
I can change, I can change

'Cause it's a bitter sweet symphony, this 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

You know I can 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 change my mold, no no, no, no, no
I can change my mold, no no, no, no, no
I can change my mold, no no, no, no

We've got ya s*x and violence, melody and silence
We've got ya s*x and violence, melody and violence
(I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down)
We've got ya s*x and silence, melody and silence
We've got ya s*x and violence, melody and silence

We've got ya s*x and silence, melody and violence
(I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down)
We've got ya s*x and violence, melody and silence
(Been down, ever been down)
We've got ya s*x and violence, oh, oh, la, la la, la, la
(Ever been down, ever been down, y'ever been down?)
(Have you ever been down? Have you ever been down?)
