[00:12.04] cuz I know that time has numbered my days
[00:15.02] And I'll go along with everything you say
[00:18.83]
[00:23.70] But I'll ride home laughing,
[00:25.63] look at me now
[00:26.69] The walls of my town,
[00:27.81] they come crumbling down
[00:30.01]
[00:35.38] And my ears hear the call
[00:36.94] of my unborn sons
[00:38.51] And I know their choices color all I've done
[00:42.54]
[00:47.10] But I'll explain it all to the watchman's son,
[00:50.09] I never lived a year better spent in love
[00:53.09]
[00:59.33] Cuz I know my weakness know my voice,
[01:02.63] so now believe in grace and choice
[01:08.50] And I know perhaps my heart is farce,
[01:12.06] but I'll be born without a mask
[01:17.61] Woo!
[01:18.38]
[01:23.99] Like the city that nurtured
[01:25.81] my greed and my pride,
[01:27.00] I stretch my arms into the sky
[01:30.44]
[01:35.62] I cry Babel! Babel! Look at me now
[01:38.85] Then the walls of my town,
[01:40.23] they come crumbling down
[01:43.42]
[01:47.34] You ask where will
[01:48.41] we stand in the winds that will howl,
[01:50.41] As all we see will slip into the cloud
[01:54.14]
[01:58.89] So come down from your mountain
[02:00.45] and stand where we've been,
[02:01.69] you know our breath
[02:03.45] is weak and our body thin
[02:06.32]
[02:12.00] Press my nose up
[02:14.17] to the glass around your heart
[02:16.68]
[02:18.61] I should've known
[02:20.55] I was weaker from the start
[02:24.97] You'll build your walls
[02:26.66] and I will play my bloody part
[02:30.41] To tear, tear them down
[02:34.52]
[02:35.46] Well I'm gonna tear, tear them down
[02:41.74] Cuz I know my weakness know my voice,
[02:44.93] but I believe in grace and choice
[02:47.61]
[02:50.79] And I know perhaps my heart is farce,
[02:53.97] but I'll be born without a mask
