PLEASE LET IT BE DIFFERENT THIS TIME - Whitey

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

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 stayed where they died

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

Well I prefer it in the back of my mind

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

Well I prefer it in the back of my mind

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

Who do we remember?

There could be any number of them

We could pick a number

I’ll 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

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

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…
