Please Let It Be Different This Time

[Verse 1]

Maybe I'm too ignorant

Keep it in the moment

Or maybe it's irrelevant

See I don't feel that different

So pretend that we are something else

Let's all pretend we are someone else

As long as I'm anybody else

Let's all pretend, all pretend

[Chorus]

Do we really have to dig up all those ghosts again

Or is it better they just lay where they lie?

Yeah, do you really have to bring up all those ghosts again?

Maybe it's better they just stay where they died

We keep on running through the ways in which I let you down

Well, I prefer them in the back of my mind

Yeah, we keep running through the ways in which I let you down

Well, I prefer them in the back of my mind

[Post-Chorus]

It's just the same old shame

I don't feel nothing different

Things don't change

I don't see nothing different

It's just the same old day

And we are nothing different

Things don't change

Change, change

[Verse 2]

Who do we remember?

There could be any number of them

We could pick a number

Or start it up all over again

We've always almost given it up

We like to tell ourselves we know we could stop

When really, we're just making it up

We make it up, break it up

[Chorus]

Break it into little pieces that we scatter around

Then we pretend that we don't know what we've done

We break up into little pieces that we leave around

Then we complain about the damage we've done

It's been an endless parade of impossible days

That we'll miss once we leave them behind

It's been an endless parade of impossible days

Please let it be different this time

[Outro]

Please let it be different this time...

Please let it be different this time...

Please let it be different this time...

Please let it be different this time...

Please let it be different this time...

Please let it be different this time...

Please let it be different this time...

Please let it be different this time...
