[00:07.76]I'm a rider of the city on this Brooklyn train.
[00:11.87]Held by the crowd face to face
[00:15.62]Freeze-frames in time move through me
[00:19.26]Moments in life I won't again see
[00:23.00]A pack of kids gets on board
[00:26.69]Loud and laughing they rule the car
[00:30.42]Non-stop rhythm of words and speed
[00:34.10]The sound of the young
[00:35.83]The sound of the city
[00:39.85]Down below on iron veins
[00:43.59]Rolling waves of subway trains
[00:47.31]Rails of mercy cross the lives of men
[00:50.99]Safe in the body of New York again
[00:58.64]Asian men selling
[01:00.35]Firetrucks and flags
[01:02.24]The mixed up voices of a duop band
[01:06.11]Sailors and whites
[01:07.92]Dance and sing
[01:09.73]Beneath the streets
[01:11.21]Part of everything
[01:13.26]A family just arrived from JFK
[01:17.00]A couple of boys
[01:18.72]Another on the way
[01:20.86]A mother is watching
[01:22.65]Remembers her son
[01:24.50]Buys some firetrucks-
[01:26.18]Gives each of them one
[01:30.42]Down below on iron veins
[01:34.46]Rolling waves of subway trains
[01:37.92]Rails of mercy cross the lives of men
[01:41.67]Safe in the body of New York again
[01:50.93]Amid all these others
[01:52.91]It's myself I see
[01:54.64]And the thread that connect these faces to me.
[01:58.48]And those who rode these rails before me
[02:02.29]And the others who'll ride this train after me.
[02:10.11]Williamsburg bridge,
[02:12.10]Sun hits the train as it rises over the city again
[02:17.74]Nobody speaks
[02:19.59]Everyone stares
[02:21.26]Remembering all that used to be there.
[02:25.40]And only the living
[02:26.79]Know what loss means
[02:28.99]Riding together on this morning train.
[02:35.18]Down below on iron veins
[02:38.85]Rolling waves of subway trains
[02:42.47]Rails of mercy cross the lives of men
[02:46.80]Safe in the body of New York again
[02:50.30]Safe in the body of New York again
