[offset:-100] |
| [00:19.36] |
Darkness at the break of noon |
| [00:20.96] |
Shadows even the silver spoon |
| [00:22.93] |
The handmade blade, the child's balloon |
| [00:24.73] |
Eclipses both the sun and moon |
| [00:26.54] |
To understand you know too soon |
| [00:28.64] |
There is no sense in trying. |
| [00:39.50] |
Pointed threats, they bluff with scorn |
| [00:41.08] |
Suicide remarks are torn |
| [00:42.82] |
From the fool's gold mouthpiece |
| [00:44.99] |
The hollow horn plays wasted words |
| [00:46.19] |
Proves to warn |
| [00:47.38] |
That he not busy being born |
| [00:48.62] |
Is busy dying. |
| [00:58.38] |
Temptation's page flies out the door |
| [01:00.02] |
You follow, find yourself at war |
| [01:02.17] |
Watch waterfalls of pity roar |
| [01:04.41] |
You feel to moan but unlike before |
| [01:06.20] |
You discover |
| [01:06.99] |
That you'd just be |
| [01:07.79] |
One more person crying. |
| [01:17.36] |
So don't fear if you hear |
| [01:21.52] |
A foreign sound to your ear |
| [01:25.79] |
It's alright, Ma, I'm only sighing. |
| [01:56.45] |
A question in your nerves is lit |
| [01:58.15] |
Yet you know there is no answer fit |
| [02:00.07] |
To satisfy, insure you not to quit |
| [02:02.19] |
To keep it in your mind and not forget |
| [02:04.11] |
That it is not he or she or them or it |
| [02:05.97] |
That you belong to |
| [02:15.60] |
Although the masters make the rules |
| [02:20.11] |
For the wise men and the fools |
| [02:24.11] |
I've got nothing, Ma, to live up to |
| [02:39.37] |
For them that must obey authority |
| [02:41.05] |
That they do not respect in any degree |
| [02:43.05] |
Who despise their jobs, their destinies |
| [02:45.35] |
Speak jealously of them that are free |
| [02:47.25] |
Do what they do just to be nothing more |
| [02:49.33] |
Than something they invest in |
| [03:00.79] |
