Cover art for Changes lyrics by Stars

If you've never been good with change, why would you hate when things stay the same? I don't get it...am I missing something?

My Opinion

Maybe it's like that when a relationships is failing... you don't want it to be over, because of all the history and the good stuff, and you are afraid what the change might bring you... but on the other hand you just can't take it anymore, and you know that it can't stay the same...

it seems to me like the chorus, if written with impeccable english grammar, might be read as:

"changes: [on the one hand] i've never been good with change. [but on the other hand] i hate it when it all stays the same."

it's not really a contradiction, it's just lacking a conjunction, according to my reading anyway. and this would mean that, while the singer may not handle change well, she still gets very bored and irritated when things stay the same. like, maybe, a relationship. you stay with one person too long, you get bored. so you...

I see is as a complicated love/hate issue. Try not looking at it so literally, especially because it's a Stars song.
