Changes Are No Good Lyrics
i wear a smile
i wear a laugh
on in the back stage changing heads
i am a weekday on weekends
i hate my best friends
spoken, choked up on my notes
this heart drones
as i try and act adult
but like a walkmen falls to pieces
all parts no heart
see me change, changes are no good
see me change, changes are no good
see me change
all the world's deranged
and i'm left crushed
people delayed
are in a rush
i'm on a roll
but i might throw up
will i ruin my make-up?
see me change, changes are no good
see me change, changes are no good
see me change
see me change, changes are no good
see friends change, changes are no good
see me change
i wear a laugh
on in the back stage changing heads
i am a weekday on weekends
i hate my best friends
this heart drones
as i try and act adult
but like a walkmen falls to pieces
all parts no heart
see me change, changes are no good
see me change
and i'm left crushed
people delayed
are in a rush
i'm on a roll
but i might throw up
will i ruin my make-up?
see me change, changes are no good
see me change
see friends change, changes are no good
see me change

a song about depression and putting on a facade in public. "on in the backstage changing heads", just about the act he puts on in front of people and at shows.. while realising that everything is changing, this could be the rest for the sadness
to me it is about depression but more so having to do with the woes of becoming an adult. i am a weekday on weekends, changes are no good. growing up is hard. this song describes it perfectly.
this is one of my favourite songs and i agree with michael completely, song about depression
This song reminds me so much of 'We Wear the Mask' by Dunbar.

all the world's deranged and i'm left crushed people delayed or in a rush i'm on a roll but i might throw up will it ruin my make-up?
this song is beautiful
Favorite line: "i wear the smile, i wear the laugh. i'm in the backstage changing heads, i am a weekday on week-ends, i hate my best friends..."
It just blows me away...
"But like a walkman falls to pieces, all parts no heart."
I love that line. If I said it, I'd sound completely stupid, but it just sounds right coming from someone who makes music. He's a complex person, but right now he's got nothing and feels nothing.
I don't know why he says "see me change, changes are no good," because he is singing about how he's stuck in a rut...doesn't he want to get out of his low point?
I love this song. Tim's voice is so perfect.
