I saw the video for "The Saddest Song" and wanted to download the song but I must've got a different version because the lyrics don't match the words I hear on TV. The lyrics on my version are like this: What's wrong with everyone? There's a panic in their eyes Like others getting close are aliens, in disguise They smell conspiracy on the lips of dearest friends Reminds me of a time long ago, They think it's the end Of what we all created, used to love but now we hate it Life is as simple as the mind it lives in The truth is a waste of time, when we're conditioned to understand Lies are the right was as we watch the blind leading the blind Everything that we see is another's suffering Learn to enjoy the message the TV is delivering You're safe being the glass like being at the zoo The face of guilty thoughts turns around and looks just like you Don't want be another, victim but you watch them suffer Organized, de-sensitized and trained To wake up at 6 AM, go to work come home and in bed by ten When the feeling is safe and warm Horrified by any change, living by consensus destroys us Paints pretty pictures at the same time will do us more harm That doesn't sound right. Are there two versions lurking around?! Help would be appreciated. I've never been so desperate to hear a song. EDIT: Don't worry about it. I've answered my own question. The acoustic version is very different to the original one apparently. Let s just make this a discussion thread for the new video.
I own the album and the acoustic version and the album version are the same exact thing. One's just acoustic.
I don't get it. The non-acoustic one starts like this: What's wrong with everyone? There's a panic in their eyes Like others getting close are aliens, in disguise And the acoustic one starts like this: Only two more days, until your birthday Yesterday was mine The lyrics are different!
Radical Dreamer: I just said I own the album. I know what I'm talking about. Both versions have the same exact lyrics, but one is acoustic.
