| [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 |
