Nothing Changes

This is what the gods must have been talking about When they told me, "Nothing changes" Falling through the Pleiades straight into a cloud Wishing all the stars could save me And I feel strange like I shouldn't be here Let me know if you receive me If I could change, then I wouldn't be here Oh, nothing's gonna change, believe me So don't lead me on This is what the birds must have been squawking about Right before the dream was ending And maybe you'd have heard if you'd stopped fucking around When it was time to stop pretending That I could change and I wouldn't be here Oh, when did all the gods deceive me? I should change, I shouldn't be here But nothing's gonna change, believe me Believe me Thrust the dagger into the night, valiant flailing Sisyphean daily life, but endless straining Fortify the curtain walls, but nothing's storming Push the boulder off to the side La-la-la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la La-la-la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la La-la-la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la La-la-la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la And this is what the gods must have been talking about When they told me, "Nothing changes"
