I'm seeking for the same thing, the same thing,
Something wasted everyday.
I'm making some changes, changes,
Changing everything.
I go out, I come in.
I wake up,
It starts again,
It starts again,
It starts again,
It starts again,
It starts again,
It starts again,
It starts again,
It starts again,
It starts again,
It starts again,
It starts.
Let's go on that,
I'm ready to start again,
Turn off the sun,
Are you ready?
Let's start again!
I'm turning the pages, slowly,
praying that it's time to go!
I'm praying for changes, mainly,
changing everything.
I go out,
I come in.
I wake up,
It starts again,
It starts again,
It starts again,
It starts again,
It starts again,
It starts again,
It starts again,
It starts again,
It starts again,
It starts again,
It starts.
Let's go on that,
I'm ready to start again,
Turn off the sun,
Are you ready?
Let's start again!
I'm looking at faces, faces,
Faces that don't mean a damn.
They are waiting for the changes, changes.
Waiting just like me.
We go out,
We come in.
We wake up,
It starts again,
It starts again,
It starts again,
It starts again,
It starts again,
It starts again,
It starts again,
It starts again,
It starts again,
It starts again,
It starts.
Let's go on that,
I'm ready to start again,
Turn off the sun,
Are you ready?
Let's start again!
It starts again,
It starts again,
It starts again,
It starts again,
It starts again,
It starts again,
It starts again,
It starts again,
It starts again,
It starts again,
It starts.
