Nothing Is New

I've been called smart

When I followed the rules

But I went down to the place

They call the den of fools

They feel like explorers

But it's just a bunch of crap

You can't be no explorer

Just studying a map

These words are so familiar

Did I once say them to you

I feel like I've heard it all

So what in the world can you do

Nothing is new

Can't get no lower

Sleep on the floor

Think you can't bear it

Then you bear it some more

A heart's a moving target

I know what that means

You miss so many times

So many ugly scenes

These words are so familiar

Did I once say them to you

I feel like I've heard it all

So what in the world can you do

Nothing is new

I know what I was doing

I got in too deep

It was a good feeling to find

It was a bad feeling to keep

Now I hear the song

Of an invisible owl

I know that it's over

There's nothing left now

If I saw you on the street

And I walked right up to you

And you searched my face

And finally said

How you do

I'd say nothing is new

Nothing is new
