Anais Mitchell – Nothing Changes Lyrics

Folk

Why the struggle, why the strain?
Why make trouble? Why make scenes?
Why go against the grain?
Why swim upstream?

It ain't- It ain't- It ain't no use
You're bound- You're bound- You're bound to lose
What's done- What's done- What's done is done
That's the way the river runs

So why get wet? Why break a sweat?
Why waste your precious breath?
Why beat your handsome brow? Nothing changes

Nothing changes
Nothing changes anyhow
