[00:41.12]Yesterday I spent asleep
[00:45.67]Woke up in my clothes in a dirty heap
[00:48.55]
[00:51.37]Spent the night trying to make a deadline
[00:54.42]
[00:56.11]Squeezing complicated lives into a simple headline
[01:00.09]
[01:02.16]I have your face here in an old Polaroid
[01:05.03]
[01:07.03]Tidying the children's clothes and toys
[01:10.87]
[01:12.18]You're smiling back at me,
[01:13.86]I took the photo from the fridge
[01:16.54]
[01:17.92]Can't remember what then we did
[01:21.54]
[01:23.15]I haven't been with a woman,
[01:24.72]it feels like for years
[01:26.95]
[01:28.03]Thought of you the whole time, your salty tears
[01:32.58]
[01:33.70]This shitty world sometimes produces a rose
[01:38.01]
[01:38.63]The scent of it lingers and then it just goes
[01:43.38]
[01:45.75]Return the call to home
[01:53.55]
[02:02.78]The worst of us are a long drawn out confession
[02:05.90]
[02:07.40]The best of us are geniuses of compression
[02:10.46]
[02:12.58]You say you're not going to leave the truth alone
[02:15.32]
[02:18.32]I'm here 'cause I don't wanna go home
[02:21.44]
[02:23.25]Child drinking dirty water from the river bank
[02:26.12]
[02:28.43]Soldier brings oranges he got out from a tank
[02:32.24]
[02:34.17]I'm waiting on the waiter,
[02:36.04]he's taking a while to come
[02:37.91]
[02:39.16]Watching the sun go down on Lebanon
[02:42.41]
[02:43.72]Return the call to home
[02:51.11]
[03:16.57]Now I've got a head like a lit cigarette
[03:19.25]
[03:21.26]Unholy clouds reflecting in a minaret
[03:24.51]
[03:26.44]You're so high above me, higher than everyone
[03:30.31]
[03:31.93]Where are you in the Cedars of Lebanon?
[03:35.83]
[03:48.19]Choose your enemies carefully
[03:50.26]'cause they will define you
[03:51.75]
[03:53.49]Make them interesting
[03:54.74]'cause in some ways they will mind you
[03:57.11]
[03:58.55]They're not there in the beginning
[04:00.23]but when your story ends
[04:02.48]
[04:03.54]Gonna last with you longer than your friends
