[00:01.53] Conor Oberst - Milk Thistle
[00:07.81]
[00:14.08]
[00:14.88] Milk thistle, milk thistle,
[00:17.71] Let me down slow,
[00:20.55] Help me down slow,
[00:22.42] I've been hurryin' on,
[00:26.26] I'm not scared of nothin',
[00:28.12] And I'll go pound for pound,
[00:31.01] I keep death on my mind,
[00:33.72] Like a heavy crown.
[00:36.55] If I go to heaven,
[00:39.46] I'll be bored as hell,
[00:41.99] Like a little baby,
[00:44.83] At the bottom of a well.
[00:50.22]
[00:54.03] Fair child, fair child,
[00:56.89] How are you man?
[00:58.60] Did you fix that storefront?
[01:01.67] Did you start that band?
[01:04.47] Don't be scared of nothin',
[01:06.95] You go pound for pound,
[01:09.77] You'll bring peace to midnight,
[01:12.78] Like a spotted owl.
[01:16.03] I'll be rootin' for you,
[01:18.17] Like my favorite team,
[01:21.01] If somebody sweats you,
[01:23.95] You just point 'em out to me.
[01:31.37]
[01:33.95] All the sights and sounds,
[01:39.28] This little world's too crowded now,
[01:43.61] And there's only one way out.
[01:55.87] An elevator ride,
[02:01.33] Through the tunnel towards the light,
[02:05.53] And I know where bound,
[02:16.18] Keep going up and down,
[02:20.72] Up and down.
[02:24.28]
[02:27.88] Newspaper, newspaper
[02:30.55] Can't take no more,
[02:32.39] You're here every morning,
[02:35.07] Waitin' at my door.
[02:38.06] And I'm just tryin' to kiss you,
[02:40.73] And you stab my eyes,
[02:43.41] Make me blue forever,
[02:46.14] Like an Allen sky.
[02:49.39] And I'm not pretending,
[02:51.80] That it's all okay,
[02:54.41] Just let me have my coffee,
[02:57.30] Before you take away the day.
[03:02.39]
[03:06.80] Lazarus, Lazarus,
[03:09.56] Why all the tears?
[03:11.38] Did your faithful chauffer just disappear?
[03:16.88] What a lonesome feeling,
[03:19.65] To be just waitin' round,
[03:22.34] Like some washed up actress,
[03:26.45] In a Tinseltown.
[03:28.43] But for the record,
[03:30.81] I'd come pick you up,
[03:33.60] We'll head for the ocean,
[03:36.17] Just say when you've had enogh.
[03:41.32]
[03:46.37] All the light and sound,
[03:51.65] This little world's too fragile now,
[03:56.05] And there's only one way out.
[04:07.92] If you let me slide,
[04:13.54] I'll do my best to make things right,
[04:17.89] And I know where bound,
[04:28.42] Keep going up and down,
[04:33.14] Up and down.
[04:36.40]
[04:40.15] Milk thistle, milk thistle,
[04:42.89] Let me down slow,
[04:45.07] Just help me down slow,
[04:47.41] I've been carrying on.
[04:50.14] I was poised for greatness,
[04:52.89] I was down and out
[04:55.41] I keep death at my heels
[04:58.48] Like a basset hound
[05:01.15] If i go to heaven,
[05:03.91] I'll be bored as hell,
[05:06.57] Like a crying baby at the bottom of a well.
[05:18.72]
