Everything Old Is New Again

Dĺžka piesne: 04:13
Learn to lose, it's easier that way
We've paid our dues, but we can't make life pay
Prechorus 1:
All across the world, people going mad
In their mother's cars, the kids are feeling sad
That's how it is, and I'll see you later
Chorus 1:
Everything old is new again, everything under the sun
Now that I'm back with you again
We hug and we kiss, we sit and make lists
We drink and I bandage your wrists
Verse 2:
Wasted youth - there wasn't much to waste
Down to the bone, and still losing weight
Prechorus 2:
With all the wishing in the world glistening in her eyes
But when I say I love her, she thinks I'm telling lies
Is it all lost? No, we never had it
Chorus 2:
Everything old is new again, everything under the sun
All of our fears come true again
Recycle reuse resent and refuse
Our parents' ideals and views
Bridge:
She thinks the afterlife might just be where the action is
With high schools built like prisons, she can't find a way to live
Verse 3:
Moved back home to fill the empty nest
Afraid to roam, in love with second best
Prechorus 3:
While somewhere in the world, she's hosting her own show
And everyone she questions never seems to know
Just who they are and where they are going
Chorus 3:
Everything old is new again, everything under the sun
Now that I'm without you again
I wake up and eat, I go back to sleep
And let all my nightmares repeat
Outro:
All across the world, people going mad
