[00:02.871]Sighs in the blackest black abiding
[00:07.371]As soon as one dies one is rising
[00:13.570]With the night so dark and cold
[00:15.570]The wishes I make are swallowed up and hidden away
[00:25.071]Breath of the whitest white is
[00:28.071]What I most wish to say down deep now inside
[00:35.817]Can a voice so numb and cold have some song to sing
[00:41.067]It could be false or reality
[00:46.317]The things I like or hate or things I want to gain
[00:51.818]Whatever's feeling good is what my lines would say
[00:57.817]For setting off the black from white it'd work perfectly
[01:03.067]Though like a chant of ruination it'd be
[01:09.568]Why did I think that since
[01:12.068]I'd studied the latest schoolbook I'd know clearly
[01:20.567]What's right from what's wrong and which is which one
[01:25.568]That I could choose I could really know
[01:31.068]I live according to stage-right stage-left exit
[01:36.568]Improvisation's not been in my bag of tricks
[01:42.569]So much of what I want to say pours out noisily
[01:47.568]But never when you're not here alone with me
[01:51.819]What I know that I hold in my hands I want to set free
[01:57.069]Think of how much lighter you and I would feel then
[02:03.069]Every word every wall every curse
[02:05.315]And sparing nothing strip it
[02:08.816]Take it all away to once again see eye to eye
[02:35.066]The things I like or hate or things I want expect
[02:40.816]Though if I let them out I think what happens next
[02:46.816]Well setting off the white from black is fearful indeed
[02:51.767]It's even more so when you live honestly
[02:56.516]This life is long so long the world is wide I say
[03:03.016]And when we've freedom won it all becomes one gray
[03:09.017]Yes happiness unhappiness it's only the heart
[03:14.267]That knows no quietude that makes itself known
[03:20.017]While an adult can keep a secret alone
