'Cause 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'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
(Never been down)
No, no, no
(Never been down)
No, no, no
(Never been down)
No, no, no
(Never been down)

Well, I've made the grade 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'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, no, no, no, no, no, no
(No, no, no, no, no, no)
Have you ever been down?
Have you ever been down?

'Cause it's a bittersweet
Symphony this 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'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, no, no, no
(No, no, no, no, no, no, no,no)
Have you ever been down?
(No, no, no, no, no)
Have you ever been down?
(No, no, no, no, no)
