[00:05.63] The Wall - Bruce Springsteen
[00:10.27] Cigarettes and a bottle of beer
[00:13.58]
[00:14.90] This poem I wrote for you
[00:18.27]
[00:19.33] This black stone and these hard tears
[00:23.41]
[00:25.10] Are all I've got left now of you
[00:28.23]
[00:29.57] I remember you
[00:30.52] in your Marine uniform laughing
[00:33.97] Laughing that you're shipping out probably
[00:36.36]
[00:37.11] I read Robert McNamara says he's sorry
[00:41.53]
[00:42.47] You and your boots and black t-shirt
[00:46.41]
[00:47.72] Ah Billy you looked so bad
[00:51.48]
[00:52.85] Ya, you and your rock and roll band
[00:56.22]
[00:57.79] Was the best thing this shit town ever had
[01:01.58]
[01:02.98] Now the man who put you here
[01:04.60] He feeds his family in rich dining halls
[01:09.17]
[01:10.42] And apology and forgiveness
[01:12.96] got no place here at all
[01:16.34]
[01:17.66] At the wall
[01:19.09]
[01:57.54] And I'm sorry I missed you last year
[02:00.60]
[02:02.73] Couldn't find no one to drive me
[02:05.67]
[02:07.49] If your eyes could
[02:09.04] cut through that black stone
[02:11.35]
[02:12.80] Tell me would they recognize me?
[02:16.60]
[02:17.92] For the living, time must be served
[02:21.23]
[02:22.67] So day goes on
[02:24.23]
[02:25.61] Cigarettes and a bottle of beer
[02:28.79]
[02:30.17] Skin on black stone
[02:32.29]
[02:35.23] On the ground those taste sweet flowers
[02:39.97]
[02:41.03] Ribbon, red as the blood
[02:45.49]
[02:46.37] Ya, as the blood you spilled
[02:49.75]
[02:51.30] In the Central Highlands mud
[02:55.45]
[02:56.29] the limousines rush down
[02:57.84] Pennsylvania Boulevard
[02:59.90] As the rain falls
[03:02.90]
[03:04.09] And apology and forgiveness
[03:06.67] got no place here at all
[03:09.99]
[03:11.41] hear the wild
