[00:00.218]Some plans were made and rice was thrown
[00:02.888]A house was built, a baby born
[00:05.839]How time can move both fast and slow amazes me
[00:11.968]And so I raise my glass to symmetry
[00:14.918]To the second hand and its accuracy
[00:17.862]To the actual size of everything
[00:21.060]The desert is the sand
[00:23.717]You can't hold it in your hand
[00:26.644]It won't bow to your demands
[00:29.564]There's no difference you can make
[00:33.022]There's no difference you can make
[00:35.425]And if it seems like an accident
[00:38.369]A collage of senselessness
[00:41.825]You aren't looking hard enough
[00:44.790]I wasn't looking hard enough at it
[01:03.153]An argument for consciousness
[01:06.085]The instinct of the blind insect
[01:09.015]Who makes love to the flowerbed
[01:12.220]And dies in the first freeze
[01:15.134]Oh, I want to learn such simple things
[01:18.066]No politics, no history
[01:20.999]Till what I want and what I need
[01:23.922]Can finally be the same
[01:26.591]I just got myself to blame
[01:29.499]Leave everything up to fate
[01:32.437]When there's choices I could make
[01:35.891]When there's choices I could make
[01:38.289]Now my heart needs a polygraph
[01:41.246]Always so eager to pack my bags
[01:44.962]When I really wanna to stay
[01:47.890]When I really wanna to stay
[01:51.084]When I wanna stay (when I wanna stay)
[01:53.743]When I wanna stay (when I wanna stay)
[01:56.679]When I wanna stay (when I wanna stay)
[01:59.908]When I wanna stay (when I wanna stay)
[02:29.982]The arc of time, the stench of sex
[02:32.948]The innocence you can't protect
[02:35.880]Each quarter note, each marble step
[02:38.835]Walk up and down that lonely treble clef
[02:43.119]Each wanting the next one
[02:46.033]Each wanting the next one to arrive
[02:49.000]Each wanting the next one
[02:51.696]Each wanting the next one to arrive
[02:53.842]An argument for consciousness
[02:56.796]The instinct of the blind insect
[02:59.977]Who never thinks not to accept its fate
[03:03.447]That's faith, there's happiness in death
[03:06.898]You give to the next one
[03:09.857]You give to the next on down the line
[03:13.046]You give to the next one
[03:15.715]You give to the next on down the line
[03:18.112]The levity of longing that
[03:21.036]Distills each dream inside my head
[03:23.974]By morning watered down forget
[03:26.925]On silver stars I wish and wish and wish
[03:30.650]From one to the next one
[03:33.831]From one to the next right down the line
[03:36.757]From one to the next one
[03:39.935]From one to the next right down the line
[03:55.404]You give to the next one
[03:58.863]You give to the next on down the line
[04:00.736]You give to the next one
[04:03.911]You give to the next on down the line
