Bitter Sweet Symphony


'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't change
I can't change, I can't 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

I Can't Decide


I can't decide
Whether you should live or die


Oh, you'll probably go to heaven
Please don't hang your head and cry


No wonder why


My heart feels dead inside
It's cold and hard and petrified


Lock the doors and close the blinds
We're going for a ride
