[00:00.46] I'm locked inside,
[00:02.66] a land called foolish price
[00:06.22] Where the man is always right
[00:10.23] He hates to talk but loves to fight
[00:14.30] Is that all right?
[00:16.31] On real cold days,
[00:18.12] he loans us lots of hate
[00:22.24] But he says that we must pay
[00:26.12] To take it all away
[00:30.25] Is that okay?
[00:32.50] But I'm asking you, will you stay with me
[00:36.37] In this land where we are free?
[00:39.94] And I know it's rough and you've had enough
[00:44.32] But one day we'll be happy
[00:48.38] And when I look into the future
[00:50.25] I see danger in its eyes
[00:52.70] Hearts of hatred rule the land
[00:54.63] while love is left aside
[00:56.70] Killing plagues,
[00:57.51] the citizens while music slowly dies
[01:00.44] I get frightened, I, see,
[01:02.46] I get frightened,
[01:04.78] Oh how, oh, how I need you, baby
[01:08.21] To keep me from going crazy
[01:09.76] I really need you baby, need you to stay
[01:12.77] Oh, how, oh, how I love you, baby
[01:15.83] These people are so crazy
[01:17.64] I really need you baby, need you to stay
[01:20.89] She's quick to fight for her man
[01:23.49] but not her rights
[01:25.92] Even though it's 3005
[01:30.18] When will we end this genocide?
[01:34.18] And that's not right
[01:36.06] Her children cry, no food to eat
[01:39.61] and her friends as flies
[01:41.99] The color black means it's time to die
[01:45.93] And nobody questions why
[01:50.00] 'Cause they're too scared to stop the man
[01:52.63] But I'm asking you,
[01:54.31] will you stay with me
[01:56.25] In this land where we are free?
[02:00.13] And I know it's rough
[02:02.13] and you've had enough
[02:04.19] But one day we'll be happy
[02:08.01] 'Cause when I look into the future
[02:10.32] I see danger in its eyes
[02:12.57] Babies die before they're born
[02:14.51] and no one ever smiles
[02:16.51] The writers and the artists,
[02:18.13] all are paid to tell us lies
[02:20.32] To keep us locked inside,
[02:22.14] they keep us locked inside
[02:24.82] Oh, how, oh, how I need you, baby
[02:27.89] To keep me from going crazy
[02:29.76] I really need you baby,
[02:31.83] need you to stay
[02:32.89] Oh, how, oh, how I love you, baby
[02:35.71] These people are so crazy
[02:37.65] I really need you baby,
[02:39.77] need you to stay
[02:41.83] I can make a change
[02:45.53] I can start a fire
[02:49.57] Lord, make me love again
[02:51.38]
[02:53.99] Fill me with desire
[02:56.75]
[02:57.82] I can make a change
[03:01.75] I can start a fire
[03:05.69] Make me love again
[03:09.44] Lord, thank You for desire
[03:11.69] And when I look into your pretty eyes
[03:14.50] I almost wanna cry
[03:16.51] I think about my life
[03:18.13] and I don't want to live a lie
[03:20.76] How I need you baby,
[03:22.13] I need you right by my side
[03:24.39] I need you tonight,
[03:26.38] I need you tonight
[03:28.39]
[03:30.49] Yeah, how I need you, baby
[03:34.74] See, I can't let you go, I need you
[03:38.50] On the other side,
[03:42.31] on the other side
[03:44.87]
[03:46.19] I love you so and I'll never let you go
[03:51.75] On the other side
