It’s a bittersweet symphony, that’s life

It’s a bittersweet symphony, that’s life

Trying 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 mould, I’m here in my mould

But I’m a million different people from one day to the next

Have you ever been down?

Well, I’ve never prayed but tonight I’m on my knees yeah

I’ll let the melody shine, let it cleanse my mind, I’m free now
