[Verse 1]
I sit and I watch the clock
I picture you on the rocks
I'm erasing your trace, a new coat of paint
A new set of locks
A new mattress, the same old bitter thoughts
[Chorus]
Thought I could fill the void
But if I'm being honest with myself
Nothing ever changes
No, nothing ever changes
Thought I could just crank up the noise
And maybe it would drown it out
But nothing ever changes
No, nothing ever changes (Ever changes)
[Verse 2]
And now I just stay in bed
Reading books I've already read
Play guitar
While I'm learning to shred
But it's too hard, I'll strum chords instеad
[Chorus]
Like it would fill the void
But if I'm being honеst with myself
Nothing ever changes
No, nothing ever changes
Thought I could just crank up the noise
And maybe it would drown it out
But nothing ever changes
No, nothing ever changes
[Bridge]
(Nothing) I sit and watch the clock
(Ever changes) I picture you on the rocks
(Nothing) Erase the trace, a new coat of paint
A new set of locks (Ever changes)
A new mattress, but the same old bitter thoughts
[Breakdown]
And even if the wait is long
And all the words are wrong
Put the recorder on and I'll begin again
I just need a quiet lull
Some books and alcohol
To get me through the night, then I'll begin again
[Outro]
Nothing (Ooh-ooh ooh-ooh ooh-ooh ooh-ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh ooh-ooh ooh-ooh ooh-ooh-ooh)
Ever changes (Ooh-ooh ooh-ooh ooh-ooh ooh-ooh-ooh)
I'll get through the night, then I'll begin again (Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh ooh-ooh)
Nothing (Ooh-ooh ooh-ooh ooh-ooh ooh-ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh ooh-ooh ooh-ooh ooh-ooh-ooh)
Ever changes (Ooh-ooh ooh-ooh ooh-ooh ooh-ooh-ooh)
Yeah, I'll get through the night, then I'll begin again (Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh ooh-ooh)
