Bittersweet Symphony
GAMPER DADONI Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Trying to make ends meet, you're a slave to money then you die
I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down
You know the one that takes you to the places
Where all the veins meet, yeah
No change, I can change
I can change, I can change
I am here in my mould
But I'm a million different people from one day to the next
I can't change my mould
No, no, no, no, no, no, no
'Cause it's a bitter sweet symphony this life
'Cause it's a bitter sweet symphony this life
Well I've never prayed, but tonight I'm on my knees, yeah
I need to hear some sounds that recognize the pain in me, yeah
I let the melody shine, let it cleanse my mind, I feel free now
But the airwaves are clean and there's nobody singing to me now
No change, I can change
I can change, I can change
But I'm here in my mould
I am here in my mould
But I'm a million different people from one day to the next
I can't change my mould
No, no, no, no, no
'Cause it's a bitter sweet symphony this life
'Cause it's a bitter sweet symphony this life
'Cause it's a bitter sweet symphony this life
'Cause it's a bitter sweet symphony this life
The lyrics to GAMPER DADONI's song Bittersweet Symphony address the struggle of making a living in today's society. It speaks to the fact that we as people are born into a system where the only way to survive is by working tirelessly to make enough money to get by. The line "Trying to make ends meet, you're a slave to money then you die" is a sobering reminder of this. The singer is speaking to a person they care for, possibly someone who is also struggling, about how difficult it is to live in a world where money dictates their lives.
The chorus, "Cause it's a bittersweet symphony, this life," further exemplifies this point. Life is beautiful in its own right, and it's full of both good and bad experiences. There's a certain level of irony in that "bittersweet" feeling, as if life is both beautiful and painful at the same time. The song also touches on the idea of identity and personal growth. "But I'm a million different people from one day to the next," acknowledges that people are constantly changing, growing, and evolving, but some aspects of ourselves will always remain unchanged.
