Lyrics

[00:00.00] 作曲 : Frusciante
[00:01.97] 1, 2, 3, 4
[00:22.49] And then the past recedes
[00:26.62] And I won't be involved
[00:30.94] The effort to be free
[00:35.25] Seems pointless from above
[00:40.33] You're looking down at me
[00:44.73] I'd rather stay below
[00:48.65] Than have you staring up at me
[00:53.36] It is nowhere I want to go
[01:02.26] Ay, this business of how long we try to stay alive
[01:11.46] Why to be here you first got to die
[01:18.26] So I gave it a try
[01:20.12] And what do you know
[01:24.33] Time was so long ago
[01:33.42] And things come back you see
[01:37.59] To where they don't belong
[01:41.67] and every drop of sea is the whole ocean
[01:54.18] I lied to the greatest thieves about anything and everything
[02:03.72] I'm a figure of forgotten speech
[02:10.33] I'm out of reach
[02:12.22] I can't play it safe
[02:16.50] But I might just in case
[02:45.89] I'm disguised as a reaching hand
[02:52.42] I'm a working man
[02:54.77] I don't understand why clockout come so slow everytime
[03:03.32] That's one line I stay right behind
