It Must Change - ANOHNI

Everything Must Change I was never one to back out of an argument and say I was wrong, Even when I'd seen the other side I'd hide my foolishness and carry on But still I'd be embarrassed 'Cos they'd see what happened and they's play along Until I back myself into a corner I would only realise when they had gone And like a dream, a life, a reason, Everything must change (Everything, Everything Must Change) And like a world, this earth and seasons Everything must change (Everything, Everything Must Change) In the same way when we disagree I woudn't be the one to back down Still I'd know that you had faith in me Tell me something, am I letting you down? 'Cos when I woke up and I saw the note you pressed into the mirror frame But it was easy to be angry at you But deep inside I know we share the blame And like a dream, a life, a reason, Everything must change (Everything, Everything Must Change) And like a world, this earth and seasons, Everything must change (Everything, Everything Must Change) I'm going back to the top to start myself off But first of all somethings I Need to know When I'm scared of being wrong again, Won't you be the one I turn to to let Me know, oh, let me know, oh Please, let me be right for once 'Cos right now all I feel I do is wrong And it's never too late to learn about love And this victim needs your hand To hold on And like a dream, a life, a reason, Everything must change (Everything, Everything Must Change) And like a world, this earth and seasons, Everything must change (Everything, Everything Must Change) And like a dream, a life, a reason, Everything must change And like a world, this earth and seasons, Everything must change (Everything Must Change, Everything Must Change) And like a dream, a life, a reason, Everything must change And like a world, this earth and seasons, Everything must change...

Deep in the back of my mind is an unrealized sound Every feeling I get from the street says it soon could be found When I hear the cold lies of the pusher, I know it exists It's confirmed in the eyes of the kids, emphasized with their fists But the high has to rise from the low Like volcanoes explode through the snow The mosquito's sting brings a dream But the poison's derange The music must change For we're chewing a bone We soared like the sparrow hawk flied Then we dropped like a stone Like the tide and the waves Growing slowly in range Crushing mountains as old as the Earth So the music must change Change! Sometimes at night, I wake up and my body's like ice The sound of the running wild stallion, the noise of the mice And I wondered if then I could hear into all of your dreams I realize now it was really the sound of your screams But death always leads into life But the street fighter swallows the knife Am I so crazy to feel that it's here prearranged? The music must change It's gets higher and higher Smoldering like leaves in the sun Then it bursts into fire Its rhythm grows strong It's so new and so strange Like bells in the clouds, then again The music must change Change! But is this song so different? Am I doing it all again? It may have been done before But then music's an open door Deep in the back of my mind is an unrealized sound Every feeling I get from the street says it soon could be found When I hear the cold lies of the pusher, I know it exists It's confirmed in the eyes of the kids, emphasized with their fists But the high has to rise from the low Like volcanoes explode through the snow The mosquito's sting brings a dream But the poison's derange The music must change For we're chewing a bone We soared like the sparrow hawk flied Then we dropped like a stone Like the tide and the waves Growing slowly in range Crushing mountains as old as the Earth The music must change.

Everything has changed The sky don't shine or rain Stars don't walk me home So I go this road alone But everything will turn And the heroes feel the burn And the outlaw speaks the truth I was bravering by you No, I'm not the same But everything must change Everyone is gone The dogs don't get along Cracks run through the wind Can't live here, no one could But everyone will come With dreams and things they've won Little women start to dance Broken men get a second chance No one is the same But everything must change I just wanna go I just wanna go, go outside and roam I just wanna see I just wanna see the holy sun Said and done I can't wait no longer Longer, longer. Where is all the love? Round here we all look up And the love runs over the edge And I just need a friend And everywhere there's light In the dying start to fight And the ashes blow away It's the most beautiful day When it's time to say goodbye Sweet mother, don't you cry There'll be no more pain Cause everything must change Everything must change Everything must change

For more or less For better or for worse Slam the door, a window flies open Feel the contours of my words I am bruised but not broken For better or for worse For more or less Don't look backwards Don't look forwards Mom has been my compass Has been my compass I call you from the crossroads Come and be good to me And treat me right Who knows the direction the winds will blow? Come and kiss me softly in this hard life Whisper sweet things and just let go And just let go And just let me go And just let go And just let go And just let go Come and be good to me And treat me right Who knows the direction winds will blow? Winds will blow Don't look forwards Don't look forwards And just let me go For better or for worse More or less Don't look backward and don't look forwards Mom has been my compass Has been my compass I call you, I call you from the crossroads Come and be good to me Treat me right Who knows the direction winds will blow? Come and kiss me softly in this hard life Whisper sweet things and just let me go

I don't love you anymore It's been a while and I am sure You left me for another girl You left me in a broken world You left me lying in the street You left me without body heat I curled into rust My body turned into dust I couldn't get out of the hole I was so lonely, all alone When the phone rang, I wasn't there When my parents called, I just sat and stared I went to sleep Hoped that my life I could cheat Take me off the face of this lonely world Let me turn and turn in your love It's been a while And I don't love you anymore You walked away from me Out of the blue and you were free I was such a fool I gave more to keep things cool But if you showed up at my door This is what I'd implore I don't love you anymore I don't love you anymore You left me in a cage My only defense was rage

Execution It's an american dream Have no mercy on me Please don't have mercy Don't let them prove I was wrong When we know so bad what's right Don't let them dig up my grave Sometimes a feeling is reason enough Execution It's an american dream Like the chinese and the saudis The north koreans and the nigerians If europe takes it away Inject me with something else Fill me up with something else And if they try to take our love away Please don't have mercy!

How did I become The mother of this son? The face and mind And hands of virulence? I, who curled in cave and moss I, who gathered wood for fire And tenderly embraced How did I become a virus? Hopelessness I feel the hopelessness I don't care about me I feel the animals and the trees They got nowhere to go I don't care much about you I don't give a shit what happens to you Now we blew it all away Hopelessness I feel the hopelessness How did I become a virus? I've been taking more than I deserve Leaving nothing in reserve Digging till the bank runs dry I've been living a lie
