Learn to lose, it's easier that way
  We've paid our dues, but we can't make life pay
  All across the world, people going mad
  In their mother's cars, the kids are feeling sad
  That's how it is, and I'll see you later
  
  Everything old is new again, everything under the sun
  Now that I'm back with you again
  We hug and we kiss, we sit and make lists
  We drink and I bandage your wrists
  
  Wasted youth -- there wasn't much to waste
  Down to the bone, and still losing weight
  With all the wishing in the world glistening in her eyes
  But when I say I love her, she thinks I'm telling lies
  Is it all lost? No, we never had it.
  
  Everything old is new again, everything under the sun
  All of our fears come true again
  Recycle, reuse, resent and refuse
  Our parent's ideals and views.
  
  She thinks the afterlife might just be where the action is
  With high schools built like prisons,
  she can't find a way to live
  
  Moved back home to fill the empty nest
  Afraid to roam, in love with second best
  While somewhere in the world, she's hosting her own show
  Everyone she questions never seems to know
  Just who they are and where they are going
  
  Everything old is new again, everything under the sun
  Now that I'm without you again
  I wake up and eat, I go back to sleep
  And let all my nightmares repeat
  
  All across the world, people going mad
