[00:00.00] | What happened here? |
[00:03.550] | The butterfly has lost its wings |
[00:07.720] | The air's too thick to breathe |
[00:10.750] | And there's something in the drinking water. |
[00:21.040] | The sun comes up |
[00:24.740] | The sun comes up and you're alone |
[00:28.040] | Your sense of purpose come undone |
[00:31.570] | The traffic tails back to the maze on 101 |
[00:42.810] | And the news from the sky |
[00:45.980] | Is looking better for today |
[00:50.200] | In every single way |
[00:53.020] | But not for you |
[00:57.250] | World citizen |
[01:04.239] | World citizen |
[01:10.879] | It's not safe |
[01:14.680] | All the yellow birds are sleeping |
[01:18.150] | Cos the air's not fit for breathing |
[01:21.680] | It's not safe |
[01:24.760] | Why can't we be |
[01:28.700] | Without beginning, without end? |
[01:32.188] | Why can't we be? |
[01:39.920] | World citizen |
[01:46.799] | World citizen |
[01:53.780] | And if I stop |
[01:58.110] | And talk with you awhile |
[02:00.840] | I'm overwhelmed by the scale |
[02:04.870] | Of everything you feel |
[02:08.649] | The lonely inner state emergency |
[02:18.530] | I want to feel |
[02:22.159] | Until my heart can take no more |
[02:25.899] | And there's nothing in this world I wouldn't give |
[02:32.989] | I want to break |
[02:36.569] | The indifference of the days |
[02:39.949] | I want a conscience that will keep me wide awake |
[02:47.039] | I won't be disappointed |
[02:54.220] | I won't be disappointed |
[03:01.189] | I won't be. |
[03:10.310] | I saw a face |
[03:13.560] | It was a face I didn't know |
[03:16.789] | Her sadness told me everything about my own |
[03:24.159] | Can't let it be |
[03:27.859] | When least expected there she is |
[03:31.500] | Gone the time and space that separates us |
[03:38.669] | And I'm not safe |
[03:42.229] | I think I need a second skin |
[03:45.829] | No, I'm not safe |
[03:53.319] | World citizen |
[04:00.329] | World citizen |
[04:07.389] | I want to travel by night |
[04:10.599] | Across the steppes and over seas |
[04:14.569] | I want to understand the cost |
[04:18.490] | Of everything that's lost |
[04:21.728] | I want to pronounce all their names correctly |
[04:28.939] | World citizen |
[04:35.940] | World citizen |
[04:42.639] | I won't be disappointed |
[04:49.889] | I won't be. |
[04:57.079] | She doesn't laugh |
[05:00.420] | We've gone from comedy to commerce |
[05:04.269] | And she doesn't feel the ground she walks upon |
[05:11.250] | I turn away |
[05:14.879] | And I'm not sleeping well at night |
[05:18.360] | And while I know this isn't right |
[05:21.728] | What can you do? |
[00:00.00] | |
