Unknown Artist - Nothing Is Special Anymore - (1986) - WHFS Tapes

I rule the world as I watch, that’s Incredible I can't see my future, but I do know my fate And when I get there, it'll be worth the wait … Now the world just spins, like the same pace intended to But I’ll stay here, with my newfound identity No need for pressure, there’s no chance to lose What makes everybody see, the fantasy Ooohhhh… [Chorus] Nothing is special anymoreeeee…. Nothing is sweet, that’s for sureeee…. [Verse 2] I walk through the streets, where the lights used to shine Now they flicker and fade, just like my mind I used to dream big, I used to care But now I sit back and breathe in the air And I know, oh I know That nothing’s the same as it used to be I’ve changed my view, and I’ve changed my key The melody’s different, but I’m still in tune I’ll just drift away in this cold afternoon Oooohhhh… [Chorus] Nothing is special anymoreeeee… Nothing is sweet, that’s for sureeee… [Verse 3] I look in the mirror, and what do I see? A reflection of someone who isn’t quite me I used to feel special, I used to feel strong But now I just wonder where I went wrong And the days blur together, the nights feel the same But I’ll carry on playing this lonely game And I know, oh I know That nothing’s as bright as it used to be I’ve lost my way, but I’m still here you see The world keeps turning, but I’ve lost my spin And I’ll fade away as the lights grow dim Oooohhhh… [Chorus] Nothing is special anymoreeeee… Nothing is sweet, that’s for sureeee… [Verse 4] I once had a purpose, I once had a plan But now I’m just drifting, a ghost of a man The colors have faded, the thrill’s gone away But I’ll keep on walking through the endless gray And I know, oh I know That nothing’s as warm as it used to be The fire inside has turned to debris I can’t find the passion, it’s slipped from my hands Like sand through the fingers, no one understands Oooohhhh… [Chorus] Nothing is special anymoreeeee… Nothing is sweet, that’s for sureeee… Nothing is special anymoreeeee… Nothing is sweet, that’s for sureeee… [Verse 5] I walk past the places we used to adore But now they’re just buildings, nothing more The magic has faded, the glow has dimmed And the memories we had now seem so grim And I know, oh I know That nothing’s as real as it used to be The dreams we shared are just history I try to revive them, but they slip away And I’m left here waiting for a brighter day Oooohhhh… [Chorus] Nothing is special anymoreeeee… Nothing is easy, that’s for sureeee… Nothing is dreamy anymoreeeee… Nothing is for me, that’s for sureeee… [Chorus] Nothing is special anymoreeeee… Nothing is easy, that’s for sureeee… Nothing is dreamy anymoreeeee… Nothing is for me, that’s for sureeee… Nothing is special anymoreeeee…. Nothing is sweet, that’s for sureeee… Nothing is special anymoreeeee…. Nothing is sweet, that’s for sureeee…
