lou reed - trade in lyrics

i met a new me at 8 am
the other one got lost
this was not a trade in
although i wouldn’t believe the cost
i woke up crying as we said goodbye
me an my old self
each day he vanished more and more
as i became someone else
he actually was murdered i had taken him apart
but when i put him back together
i couldn’t find his heart
it was resting underneath a chair
in a bed of bright tin foil
if i pulled back the flaps
i could still see it beat
i could still hear his voice uncoil
as i said :
i want a trade in
a 14th chance at this life
i’ve met a woman with a thousand faces
and i want to make her my wife
how could i have been so mistaken
how could i think that it was true
a child that is raised by an idiot
and that idiot then becomes you
how could i believe in a movie
how could i believe in a book
but most of all how could i listen to you
such an obvious schmuck
a life spent listening to -ssholes
it’s funny but it’s true
so get rid of them i said to myself
but first i’m getting rid of you
i want a trade in
a 14th chance at this life
i’ve met a woman with a thousand faces
and i want to make her my wife
take me over to the window
my heart said to my head
please set me on fine
so we can start again
i was so wrong that it’s funny
and i can’t apologize/ but instead,
you can be everything that i’m not
the second that i die
i want a trade in
the second chance at this life
i’ve met a woman with a thousand faces
and i want to make her my wife
