[00:49.04]Trying to make ends meet, you're a slave to money then you die
[00:59.29]I’ll take you down the only road I've ever been down
[01:08.91]You know the one that takes you to the places
[01:14.45]Where all the veins meet, yeah
[01:18.29]
[01:19.95]No change, I can change
[01:21.58]I can change, I can change
[01:24.08]But I'm here in my mould
[01:26.50]I am here in my mould
[01:29.20]But I'm a million different people from one day to the next

[01:58.66]
[01:59.83]Well I've never prayed, but tonight I'm on my knees, yeah
[02:09.00]I need to hear some sounds that recognize the pain in me, yeah
[02:19.00]I let the melody shine, let it cleanse my mind, I feel free now
[02:28.95]But the airwaves are clean and there's nobody singing to me now
[02:36.75]
[02:40.16]No change, I can change

[03:48.79]You know the one that takes you to the places
[03:51.88]Where all the veins meet, yeah
[03:57.64]It's just sex and violence, melody and silence
