Bitter Sweet Symphony Lyrics - Urban Hymns - The Verve

'Cause 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 veins meet, yeah 

No change, I can change, I can change, I can 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 (have you ever been down?) 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 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 

Have you ever been down? 

I can't change it you know, I can't change it 

'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 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 

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

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

You've gotta change my mould, no, no, no 

(It's just sex and violence, melody and silence) 

(Gotta, can't change my violence, melody and silence) 

(Gotta, can't change my violence, melody and silence) 

(I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down) 

(Gotta, can't change my violence, melody and silence) 

(I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down) 

(Gotta, can't change my violence, melody and silence) 

(Been down) 

(Ever been down) 

(Can't change my violence, melody and silence) 

(Ever been down) 

(Ever been down) 

(Ever been down) 

(Have you ever been down?) 

(Have you ever been down?) 

(Have you ever been down?) 

(Have you ever been down?) 

(Have you ever been down?)
