The Verve Lyrics

Cos it's a bitter sweet 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 things 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
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

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
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

Cos 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 things 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't change my mold
No no no no no

I can't change my mold, no no no no no
I can't change my mold, no no no no no

You got your sex and violence, melody and silence
Can't change my violence, melody and silence

I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down
I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down
Been down
Ever been down
Ever been down
Ever been down

The Drugs Don't Work


All this talk of getting old
It's getting me down my love
Like a cat in a bag, waiting to drown
This time I'm coming down
And I hope you're thinking of me
As you lay down on your side

Now the drugs don't work

They just make you worse
But I know I'll see your face again
Now the drugs don't work
They just make you worse
But I know I'll see your face again

But I know I'm on a losing streak
Cos I passed down my old street
And if you wanna show
Then just let me know
And I'll sing in your ear again

Now the drugs don't work
They just make you worse
But I know I'll see your face again

Cos baby, ooh
If heaven calls, I'm coming too
Just like you said
If you leave my life, I'm better off dead

All this talk of getting old
It's getting me down my love
Like a cat in a bag, waiting to drown
This time I'm coming down

Now the drugs don't work
They just make you worse
But I know I'll see your face again

Cos baby, ooh
If heaven calls, I'm coming too
Just like you said
If you leave my life, I'm better off dead

But if you wanna show
Then just let me know
And I'll sing in your ear again

Now the drugs don't work
They just make you worse
But I know I'll see your face again

Yeah, I know I'll see your face again
Yeah, I know I'll see your face again
Yeah, I know I'll see your face again
Yeah, I know I'll see your face again

Never coming down now, never coming down
No more, no more, no more, no more, no more
Never coming down now, never coming down
No more, no more, no more, no more, no more
Never coming down now, never coming down
No more, no more, no more, no more, no more
Never coming down now, never coming down
No more, no more, no more, no more, no more
