[00:36.14] I bought you a black tin box,
[00:40.17] Something to put your jewelry in.
[00:50.36] But it struck me as the property of the childless.
[00:56.27] It was cold out and warm in.
[01:00.49]
[01:06.19] The edges were sharp.
[01:14.26] The edges were sharp.
[01:22.27] Take me down the hillside.
[01:29.35] Show me where they used to play.
[01:38.37] Take me down the hillside.
[01:44.14] Show me where they used to play.
[01:51.02]
[02:11.48] Black sheep, black sheep, in the aftershocks
[02:15.43] Thought he could survive in the black tin box.
[02:19.04] Black sheep, black sheep, in the aftershocks
[02:23.08] Thought you could survive in the black tin box.
[02:26.87]
[02:28.08] I mailed you a Dutch postcard
[02:32.32] Where I tried to be comforting.
[02:42.38] There were kids, my neighbors, on the sidewalk
[02:49.22] Playing superman.
[02:57.78]
[02:58.24] But the edges were sharp.
[03:06.31] The edges were sharp.
[03:14.28] Take me down the hillside.
[03:21.02] Show me where they used to play.
[03:30.27] Take me down the hillside.
[03:36.00] Show me where they used to play.
[03:45.38]
[03:48.24] Your sisters and you,
[03:51.41] Running through the orange light of the after-day.
[03:57.87]
[04:03.44] Black sheep, black sheep, in the aftershocks
[04:06.88] Thought he could survive in the black tin box.
[04:11.00] Black sheep, black sheep, in the aftershocks
[04:15.14] Thought you could survive in the black tin box.
[04:20.32]
