Trade In

[Verse 1]

I met a new me at 8 am, the other one got lost

This was not a trade in, although I wouldn't believe the cost

I woke up crying as we said goodbye

Me and my old self, each day he vanished more and more as I became someone else

[Verse 2]

He actually was murdered, I had taken him apart

But when I put him back together, I couldn't find his heart

It was resting underneath a chair, in a bed of bright tin foil

If I pulled back the flaps, I could still see it beat, I could still hear his voice uncoil

As I said

[Chorus]

I want a trade in, a fourteenth chance at this life

I've met a woman with a thousand faces

And I want to make her my wife

[Verse 3]

How could I have been so mistaken, how could I think that it was true

A child that is raised by an idiot and that idiot then becomes you

How could I believe in a movie? How could I believe in a book?

But most of all how could I listen to you, such an obvious schmuck

A life spent listening to assholes, it's funny but it's true

So get rid of them, I said to myself, but first I'm getting rid of you

[Chorus]

I want a trade in, a fourteenth chance at this life

I've met a woman with a thousand faces

And I 'm gonna make her my wife

[Verse 4]

Take me over to the window, my heart said to my head

Please set me on fire so we can start again

I was so wrong that it's funny, and I can't apologize

But instead, you can be everything that I'm not, the second that I die

[Chorus]

Ooh, I want a trade in, a second chance at this life

I've met a woman with a thousand faces

And I want to make her my wife

[Outro]

Huh

A fourteenth chance at this life

I want a trade in

A thousand faces, a thousand faces

Trade, I said to trade, mmm

Fourteenth, fourteenth chance at this life
