Like Nothing Ever Changed
Birth Control Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Since you sold my soul to devil's tribe
It does to feel you're near
Seems denying all this time
Don't you look upon me
Like nothing ever changed
Passed my way and disappeared
How comes I do care
You ain't stop to break me on the wheel
But don't you look upon me
Like nothing ever changed
An' don't you look upon me
Like nothing ever changed
Swallowing my yearning
You set the time I fall into
All my senses burning
To get revived to life
To what I've been before
Swallowing my yearning
You set the time I fall into
All my senses burning
To get revived to life
To what I've been before
Swallowing my yearning
You set the time I fall into
All my senses burning
To get revived to life
To what I've been before
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, like nothing ever changed
The lyrics to Birth Control's song "Like Nothing Ever Changed" contain multiple layers of meaning. At its core, the song appears to be about a former lover who has betrayed the singer in some way by selling their soul to a "devil's tribe." Despite the pain caused by this betrayal, the singer still yearns for the former lover and feels a sense of denial about the passage of time. The repeated refrain, "Don't you look upon me like nothing ever changed," suggests that the singer wants a recognition of what has happened and the impact it has had on their life.
The song goes on to explore the singer's feelings of regret and nostalgia, describing how other relationships have come and gone but the feelings for this former lover remain. The lines "Swallowing my yearning / You set the time I fall into / All my senses burning / To get revived to life / To what I've been before" suggest that the singer is trying to reclaim something they have lost, but that the former lover holds the key to this transformation.
Overall, the song is a meditation on the pain of love and loss, and the difficulty of moving on from deep wounds. It speaks to the power of memory and the ways in which we hold onto past relationships and experiences, even when they have caused us harm.

It's been a thousand years
It feels like it's been forever since we were together
Since you sold my soul to devil's tribe
You betrayed me so badly that it feels like you sold my soul
It does to feel you're near
I still feel your presence even after all this time
Seems denying all this time
I've been in denial about how I still feel about you
Don't you look upon me
Don't treat me
Like nothing ever changed
like nothing has happened between us
Them frequently affairs
I've had many lovers
Passed my way and disappeared
But none of them stayed in my life for long
How comes I do care
Despite this, I still care for you
You ain't stop to break me on the wheel
You never stopped hurting me
Swallowing my yearning
I tried to hide my desire for you
You set the time I fall into
But you controlled when I would finally give in
All my senses burning
Being with you made me feel so alive
To get revived to life
It gave me a sense of renewal
To what I've been before
And made me feel like my old self again
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Like everything is back to how it used to be
Don't you look upon me
Don't treat me
Like nothing ever changed
Like nothing has happened between us
