Rockstar Supernova - Lukas Rossi Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

'Cause it's a bittersweet symphony, this life
Try 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, yeah

No change, I can change
I can change, I can change
But I'm here in my mold
I am here in my mold
But I'm a million different people
from one day to the next
I can't change my mold
No, no, no, no, no

Cause its a bittersweet Symphony
I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down




been down, been down, yeah
I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down

Tommy Lee shows very little restraint in showing that Lucas is going to be the lead singer of Super Nova. Side Note, after this second season and two Canadians winning... they never had a third one. Go Canada.
