[Verse 1]
There's no use trying to relate to that older soul
And no use trying to debate that they've got it wrong
There's no use pining for love when you're on your own
And no use crying outside if nobody's home
There's no use flying to the moon if they won't believe
So why do I go wrong on repeat?

[Refrain]
I was blinded by a memory
Like it's someone else, like it wasn't me
And there's every chance I'll be learning fast
And the day will come and then it will pass

[Chorus]
What do you want when I say I won't?
And though I try, I do the same, as though I must
And in the air of today is tomorrow's dust

[Verse 2]
There's no use trying to relate to that older soul
And no use biding your time if the bell is tolled

[Refrain]
I was blinded by a memory
Like it's someone else, like it wasn't me
And there's every chance I'll be learning fast
And the day will come and then it will pass
[Bridge]
Sympathy for the fauna
Fragile life in the sauna
In the sea getting warmer
Endlessly 'round the corner

[Chorus]
And though I try, I do the same, as though I must
And in the air of today is tomorrow's dust

[Instrumental Outro]
