[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
