B-Side - Things Change
Lyrics

When you get an important call

Someone on the other end

Says it’ll never be the same again

Why do you always walk

Into a headwind?

You know you’re going nowhere in the end

-

THINGS CHANGE, BUT YOU GOTTA KEEP DRIVING

THIS WAY, IT’S EASIER SURVIVING

I KNOW, THERE ARE OBSTACLES AT EVERY TURN

IT’S THE ONLY WAY YOU LEARN

THAT THINGS CHANGE

-

Friendships come and go

And you never know when

They’re gonna blindside and stick the knife in

On a cool summer’s day

Don’t you ever want to be

Oblivious to problems, young and free?

-

THINGS CHANGE, BUT YOU GOTTA KEEP DRIVING

THIS WAY, IT’S EASIER SURVIVING

I KNOW, THERE ARE OBSTACLES AT EVERY TURN

IT’S THE ONLY WAY YOU LEARN

THAT THINGS CHANGE

-

You hope for another way

A new beginning

But it’ll never be the same again

Holding onto what you’ve got

But more often than not

Choose rashly, pay eternally

-

THINGS CHANGE, BUT YOU GOTTA KEEP DRIVING

THIS WAY, IT’S EASIER SURVIVING

I KNOW, THERE ARE OBSTACLES AT EVERY TURN

IT’S THE ONLY WAY YOU LEARN

THAT THINGS CHANGE

Here's a song about the randomness of life. You can be happily cruising along, thinking everything's going really well and then BAM! you lose your job, or your partner, or something else you consider important. The point is that whatever changes, all you can do is get on with your life and adapt, keep on struggling and enjoy the highs when they come.
