[00:11.540] cuz I know that time has numbered my days
[00:14.520] And I'll go along with everything you say
[00:18.330]
[00:23.200] But I'll ride home laughing,
[00:25.130] look at me now
[00:26.190] The walls of my town,
[00:27.310] they come crumbling down
[00:30.410]
[00:34.880] And my ears hear the call
[00:36.440] of my unborn sons
[00:38.100] And I know their choices color all I've done
[00:42.400]
[00:46.600] But I'll explain it all to the watchman's son,
[00:49.590] I never lived a year better spent in love
[00:52.590]
[00:58.830] Cuz I know my weakness know my voice,
[01:02.130] so now believe in grace and choice
[01:04.690]
[01:08.0] And I know perhaps my heart is farce,
[01:11.560] but I'll be born without a mask
[01:16.300]
[01:17.110] Woo!
[01:17.880]
[01:23.490] Like the city that nurtured
[01:25.310] my greed and my pride,
[01:26.500] I stretch my arms into the sky
[01:29.940]
[01:35.120] I cry Babel! Babel! Look at me now
[01:38.350] Then the walls of my town,
[01:39.729] they come crumbling down
[01:42.920]
[01:46.840] You ask where will
[01:47.910] we stand in the winds that will howl,
[01:49.910] As all we see will slip into the cloud
[01:53.640]
[01:58.390] So come down from your mountain
[01:59.950] and stand where we've been,
[02:01.190] you know our breath
[02:02.950] is weak and our body thin
[02:05.820]
[02:11.500] Press my nose up
[02:13.670] to the glass around your heart
[02:16.180]
[02:18.110] I should've known
[02:20.500] I was weaker from the start
[02:22.670]
[02:24.470] You'll build your walls
[02:26.160] and I will play my bloody part
[02:28.600]
[02:29.910] To tear, tear them down
[02:34.200]
[02:34.960] Well I'm gonna tear, tear them down
[02:41.240] Cuz I know my weakness know my voice,
[02:44.430] but I believe in grace and choice
[02:47.110]
[02:50.290] And I know perhaps my heart is farce,
[02:53.470] but I'll be born without a mask
[00:11.540] cuz I know that time has numbered my days
[00:14.520] And I' ll go along with everything you say
[00:18.330]
[00:23.200] But I' ll ride home laughing,
[00:25.130] look at me now
