[00:04.32] The city called me so I came
[00:08.11] It isn't mine to question what it said
[00:12.44] I sleep until the point when I'm awake
[00:16.75] I walk until there's nothing left to trek
[00:21.15] And everyone is looking for an answer
[00:25.47] And everyone is waiting for a break
[00:29.38] I came and I was bored of it soon after
[00:32.57] But I had nowhere to go and so I stayed
[00:40.57] I dreamed a lifetime of this place
[00:44.28] It seemed an awful thing to waste
[00:49.52]
[00:53.55] Well the morning fills my mouth up with decay
[00:58.57] I like it, it reminds me how you taste
[01:02.59] Sometimes I feel you rising up behind me like the wind
[01:06.99] But I still try to look away
[01:10.45] What will you look like when you're old?
[01:14.10] (What will you look like when you're old?)
[01:15.95] What will I do if I don't know you?
[01:18.38] (What will I do if I don't know you?)
[01:20.17] I guess that I decided not to ask the day I took the road
[01:26.56] Down to the city as it called
[01:30.48] Sun making silhouettes of gauze
[01:34.87] I don't remember you at all
[01:37.78]
[01:46.55] The city called me and I came
[01:52.35] It isn't mine to question why
[01:56.76] Sometimes the clouds will rise ahead, I hear your name
[02:00.82] It's like a choir in the sky
[02:04.70] What will you look like when you're old?
[02:08.23] (What will you look like when you're old?)
[02:09.91] What will I do if I don't know you?
[02:11.56] (What will I do if I don't know you?)
[02:13.82] I guess that I decided not to know the day I took the road
[02:19.24] Down to the city as it called
[02:23.54] Sun making silhouettes of gauze
[02:27.65] I don't remember you at all
[02:35.30]
[02:45.99] They pulled a human from my waist
[02:50.73] It had your mouth, it had your face
[02:54.66] I would have kept it if I'd stayed.
[03:03.68]
