You need a new song
I set the words up so they tear right at your soul
Don't take me too long
But there's a danger that I plagiarize something old
My fingers kill me as I play my guitar
'Cause I've been chewing down at my nails
My hairline ain't exactly superstar
But there's one trick that never fails
This never fails...

I write the same old song with a few new lines
And everybody wants to cheer it
I write the same old song, you've heard it buku times
Admit you really want to hear it

Whenever I see you
You always treat me like I'm some kind of perfect man
Just 'cause I please you
You explain, but you don't think I can understand
My head is spinning as I scroll with my pen
'Cause I been pouring vodka in my soul
Nothing really ever changes, my friend
New lamps for old...new lamps for old

We sing the same old song just like a vintage car
You can look but you won't ever drive it
We drink the same old wine from a brand-new jar
We get hung-over but we always survive it

Turn on the radio love is proclaimed
Again and again and again...
Join in and sing, now don't be ashamed
Let it rain, let it rain, let it rain...
Let it rain...
Let it rain...
Let it rain...
Let it rain!

We hum the same old line to a different crowd
And everybody wants to cheer it
We run an endless time to reach a higher crown
But we never ever seem to get near it
We sing the same old song
Same old song
We sing the same old song just like a brand new car
You can look but you won't ever drive it
We drink the same old wine from a brand-new jar
We get hung-over but we always survive it
We sing the same old song
Same old song
Same old song
We sing the same old song
Sing the same old song...

I've had enough of being nice
I've had enough of right and wrong
I've had enough of trying to love my brother
Oh, I've had enough of being good.
And doing everything like I'm told I should
If you need a lover, you better find another.

Life is for the living, takers never giving.

Suspicion takes the place of trust
My love is turning into lust
If you get on the wrong side of me you better run for cover
I've had enough of being trodden on
My passive days are gonna be long gone
If you slap a cheek, well I ain't gonna turn the other

Life is for the living, takers never giving
Fooling no one, but ourselves
Good is dying
Here comes the end, here comes the end of the world

Getting sick of this universe
Ain't gonna get better, it's gonna get worse
And the world's gonna sink with the weight of the human race
Hate and fear in every face
I'm getting ready and I've packed my case
If you find something better, can you save my place

Fooling no one, but ourselves
Good is dying
Here comes the end,
Here comes the end...
Of the world

Mother was an incubator
Father was the contents
Of a test tube in the icebox
In the factory of birth

My name is 905
And I've just become alive
I'm the newest populator
Of the planet we call Earth

In suspended animation
My childhood passed me by
If I speak without emotion
Then you know the reason why
Knowledge of the universe
Was fed into my mind
As my adolescent body
Left its puberty behind

Everything I know is what I need to know
Everything I do's been done before
Every sentence in my head
Someone else has said
At each end of my life is an open door

Automatically defrosted
When manhood came on time
I became a man
I left the ice field behind
Now I'm to begin
The life that I'm assigned
A life that's been used before
A thousand times

I have a feeling deep inside
That something is missing
There's a feeling in my soul
And I can't help wishing
That one day I'll discover
That we're living a lie
And I'll tell the whole world
The reasons why

But until then, all I know is what I need to know
Everything I I do's been done before
Every idea in my head
Someone else has said
At each end of my life is an open door
