| [00:44.452] |
As effortless as all you know |
| [00:47.720] |
As inactive as a charm |
| [00:50.753] |
This vessel's lowly stowaway is armed |
| [01:01.146] |
Let the credits rave and let the critics roll |
| [01:04.602] |
As the groom runs down the aisle |
| [01:08.211] |
In a hail of bullets |
| [01:09.973] |
I just throw a towel |
| [01:16.492] |
And write the bride out |
| [01:18.511] |
|
| [01:18.758] |
A second life, a second hand, a view of space |
| [01:23.477] |
With an elephant obstructing it |
| [01:25.593] |
I'm splashing grays where once was glowing white |
| [01:32.888] |
I hit the pavement in the sunlight |
| [01:38.915] |
And I would beg the kids to just come outside and play |
| [01:46.360] |
But I'd take the ball away |
| [01:55.951] |
What is a sorry state when you can't believe your eyes? |
| [02:03.430] |
You'll gladly take as second prize |
| [02:07.836] |
|
| [02:43.363] |
Oh, and there are prophecies you'll only prophesize |
| [02:47.709] |
Over niceties and gin |
| [02:50.679] |
And now you're asking, I don't know where to begin |
| [03:00.658] |
Oh, and all the critics rave as the credits roll |
| [03:04.614] |
They kept us wet behind the ears |
| [03:07.970] |
So we'll be speaking in hushed tones for fifty years |
| [03:13.589] |
Take this heart and wear it on the outside |
| [03:19.866] |
|
| [03:21.746] |
Oh, and as the rain comes down like a tickertape parade |
| [03:28.944] |
The tears slow and dissipate |
| [03:38.303] |
Oh, and as the blood and sweat you've invested evaporates |
| [03:45.798] |
You'll have tried, but you won't make it pay |
| [03:53.940] |
|
| [05:01.577] |
Sign this and file it under dumbstruck envy |
| [05:13.550] |
That'll strike you down |
| [05:18.658] |
Sightless, the comfort in the danger |
| [05:27.319] |
Enticing, I join the queue |
| [05:35.826] |
Mindlessly, I made her in my likeness |
| [05:44.448] |
Scattered and absolute |
| [05:52.964] |
Silent and transparent |
| [05:59.438] |
The one who holds the candle to the glow of you |
