| [00:38.19] | Under the intense scrutiny of Ligeia's eyes |
| [00:47.00] | I have felt the full knowledge |
| [00:52.58] | And force of their expression |
| [01:06.64] | And yet been unable to possess it |
| [01:13.27] | And have felt it leave me |
| [01:17.30] | As so many other things have left |
| [01:23.85] | The letter half-read |
| [01:29.47] | The bottle half-drunk |
| [01:37.00] | Finding |
| [01:40.96] | Finding in the commonest objects of the universe |
| [01:47.91] | A circle of analogies |
| [01:56.18] | Of metaphors |
| [01:59.55] | Ooohhh |
| [02:04.19] | For that expression |
| [02:07.56] | Which has been willfully |
| [02:10.41] | withheld from me |
| [02:14.94] | The access to the inner soul denied |
| [02:23.98] | I wanna know, ooohhh |
| [02:31.60] | I wanna know |
| [02:35.59] | I wanna know, oh |
| [02:42.00] | I wanna know |
| [02:50.46] | In consideration |
| [02:55.28] | In consideration of the faculties and impulses |
| [03:08.59] | Of the human soul |
| [03:13.44] | Of the human soul |
| [03:15.66] | In consideration |
| [03:19.63] | Of our arrogance |
| [03:22.78] | Of our arrogance |
| [03:26.62] | Our radical, primitive irreducible arrogance of reason |
| [03:36.45] | We have all overlooked the propensity |
| [03:43.67] | We saw no need for it |
| [03:48.45] | The paradoxical something which we may call perverseness |
| [03:54.97] | Perverseness |
| [03:59.18] | Through its promptings we act without |
| [04:02.41] | Comprehensible object |
| [04:06.44] | We act for the reason we should not |
| [04:12.68] | We act for the reason we should not |
| [04:17.53] | For certain minds this is absolutely irre-, irre- irresistible |
| [04:25.51] | irresistible |
| [04:28.77] | The conviction of the wrong |
| [04:31.98] | Or impolicy of an action |
| [04:36.40] | Is often the unconquerable force |
| [04:40.40] | The unconquerable force |
| [04:44.50] | It is a primitive impulse |
| [04:48.43] | It is a primitive impulse |
| [04:54.5] | Primitive impulse |
| [04:57.21] | The overwhelming tendency |
| [05:01.95] | The overwhelming tendency to do |
| [05:06.61] | Wrong for the wrong's sake |
| [05:10.62] | To do wrong for the wrong's sake |
| [05:13.77] | We persist in acts |
| [05:17.62] | Because we feel that we |
| [05:19.72] | should not persist in them |
| [05:23.73] | Because we feel we, feel we |
| [05:26.99] | should not persist, per-, persist in them, ah |
| [05:31.38] | Ooohhh |
| [05:34.62] | So I wanna know |
| [05:39.98] | I wanna know |
| [05:46.81] | I wanna know |
| [05:53.82] | I wanna know |
| [06:09.70] | I wanna, I wanna know |
| [06:15.93] | I wanna, I |
| [06:18.42] | Ooohhh, we persist in action |
| [06:23.41] | We persist in action |
| [06:27.39] | Wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong |
| [06:34.17] | Ooohhh |
| [06:41.14] | Wrong, wrong |
| [06:44.61] | Oh we persist in action |
| [06:47.83] | Ah yeah yeah |
| [06:52.67] | When you know that it's wrong |
