[00:01.50] Flogging Molly - The Cradle Of Humankind
[00:03.45]
[00:11.54]
[00:14.66] The sum of all my fears like dread
[00:18.06] are from demons yet to come
[00:21.68] All the things I should have mentioned
[00:25.35] wave goodbye and "we'll see you soon"
[00:29.05] It's the words I've never written
[00:32.66] that say more about myself
[00:36.57] Where empty is the promise
[00:40.20] lies a pocket full of doubt
[00:43.16]
[00:48.36] So may the road I've yet to take
[00:52.84] Leave a smile across my face
[00:56.58] Till the laughter sheds the darkness far behind
[01:03.06] For I still belong in the cradle of humankind
[01:09.85]
[01:22.53] Though my time may be less traveled
[01:26.65] than those that came before
[01:30.08] We're all exiled here in madness
[01:33.87] kicking down each other's door
[01:37.44] Unforgiven is the lesson
[01:41.20] we pour upon ourselves
[01:44.80] When a helping hand is needed,
[01:48.08] a slap in the face is what we get
[01:51.54]
[01:53.07] But I will fight for this right
[01:57.59] and each moment of its life
[02:01.04] Till I witness all the differences yet to heal
[02:06.76]
[02:07.42] So may the road I've yet to take
[02:11.83] Leave a smile across my face
[02:15.47] Till the laughter sheds the darkness far behind
[02:21.81] For I still belong in the cradle of humankind
[02:28.16]
[02:40.32] Sometimes drink till I am empty,
[02:44.36] grab another from the shelf
[02:48.16] Though I'm stuck in conversation,
[02:51.93] it's with myself and no one else
[02:55.35] Never listen to much reason till I hear its last call
[03:02.81] When I notice that my ghost is still dancing on his own
[03:09.47]
[03:10.93] So may the road I've yet to take
[03:15.36] Leave a smile across my face
[03:18.83] Till the laughter sheds the darkness far behind
[03:25.29] For I still belong in the cradle of humankind
[03:31.81]
[03:35.88] Wherever you go
[03:42.74] Wherever you go
[03:49.67] Wherever you go
[03:56.35] Oh, wherever you go
[03:59.87]
[04:00.63] There will always be a roof
[04:02.54] and a dream above our heads
[04:06.95] As long as I'm breathing, then forever I'll be
[04:13.41]
[04:13.98] Ah, I will fight for this right and each moment of its life
[04:21.46] Till I witness all the differences yet to heal
[04:27.36]
[04:28.17] So may the road we've yet to take
[04:31.91] Leave a smile across our face
[04:35.37] Till the laughter sheds the darkness far behind
[04:41.73] We still belong in the cradle of humankind
[04:48.17]
