[00:42.63]	While we're on the subject
[00:44.01]	Could we change the subject now?
[00:46.38]	I was knocking on your ears
[00:47.94]	Don't worry, you were always out
[00:51.53]	Looking towards the future
[00:53.85]	We were begging for the past
[00:55.54]	Well we knew we had the good things
[00:57.91]	But those never seemed to last
[00:59.97]	Oh please just last
[01:01.54]
[01:09.97]	Everyone's unhappy
[01:11.27]
[01:12.27]	Everyone's ashamed
[01:14.08]	Well we all just got caught looking
[01:16.14]
[01:16.70]	At somebody else's page
[01:18.08]
[01:19.08]	Well nothing ever went
[01:20.33]
[01:21.46]	Quite exactly as we planned
[01:23.33]	Our ideas held no water
[01:24.52]
[01:25.58]	But we used them like a damn
[01:28.77]
[01:30.33]	Oh, and we carried it all so well
[01:33.27]
[01:35.64]	As if we got a new position
[01:38.33]	Oh, and I laugh all the way to hell
[01:42.46]
[01:44.27]	Saying yes, this is a fine promotion
[01:47.89]	Oh, and I laugh all the way to hell
[01:51.45]
[01:54.27]	Of course everyone goes crazy
[01:57.83]	Over such and such and such
[02:00.46]	We made ourselves a pillar
[02:02.64]	We just used it as a crutch
[02:04.70]	We were suddenly uncertain
[02:06.96]	At least I'm pretty sure I am
[02:09.52]	Well we didn't need the water
[02:11.52]	But we just built that go god damn
[02:14.21]
[02:14.90]	Oh, and I know this all myself
[02:18.71]
[02:21.77]	I stood in front for all the people
[02:24.71]	Oh, and I know this all myself
[02:27.52]
[02:30.71]	We listen while life hangs on
[02:33.46]
[02:35.08]	And the sound of life's sweet bliss
[02:37.90]
[03:00.90]	Was it ever worth it?
[03:02.96]	Was there all that much to gain?
[03:05.15]	Well we knew we missed the boat
[03:07.46]	And we'd already missed the plane
[03:09.02]
[03:10.27]	We didn't read the invite
[03:11.90]	We just dance at our wake
[03:14.21]	All our favorites were playing
[03:16.27]	So we could shake, shake, shake, shake, shake
[03:19.65]	Tiny curtains open
[03:21.09]	and we heard the tiny clap of little hands
[03:23.27]	A tiny man would tell a little joke
[03:26.09]	and get a tiny laugh from all the folks
[03:28.58]	Sitting drifting around in bubbles
[03:29.83]	and thinking it was us that carried them
[03:32.14]
[03:32.71]	When we finally got it figured out
[03:34.96]	that we had truly missed the boat
[03:36.71]
[03:38.27]	Oh, and we carried it all so well
[03:41.96]
[03:44.33]	As if we got a new position
[03:46.90]	Oh, and we owned all the tools ourselves
[03:50.40]
[03:53.71]	But not the skills to make a shelf with
[03:56.40]	Oh, what useless tools ourselves
[04:01.27]
