Nothing Changes Songtext
von PUP

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

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

Nothing ever changes

And now I just stay in bed
Reading books I′ve already read
Playing guitar
Well, I'm learning to shred
But it's too hard, I strum chords instead


Like it would 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

(Nothing) I sit and I watch the clock
(Ever changes) I picture you on the rocks
(Nothing) erasing your trace, a new coat of paint, a new set of locks
(Ever changes) a new mattress, but the same old bitter thoughts

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, and I'll begin again

Nothing ever changes
I′ll get through the night, then I'll begin again
Nothing ever changes
Yeah, I′ll get through the night, then I'll begin again
