[02:24.88] If you waste your time a-talking to the people who don't listen
[02:29.50] to the things that you are saying who do you think's going to hear?
[02:34.92] And if you should die explaining how the things that they complain about
[02:40.07] are things they could be changing, who d'you think's goin' to care?
[02:46.05] There were other lonely singers in a world turned deaf and blind who
[02:51.33] were crucified for what they tried to show,
[02:55.22]
[02:56.15] And their voices have been scattered by the swirling winds of time,
[03:00.40]
[03:01.38] 'cause the truth remains that no-one wants to know!
[03:04.18]
[03:52.27] And you still can hear me singing to the people who don't listen
[03:56.76] to the things that I am saying, praying someone's going to hear;
[04:02.31] And I guess I'll die explaining how the things that they complain about
[04:06.75] are things they could be changing, hoping someone's goin' to care.
[04:13.37] I was born a lonely singer and I'm bound to die the same
[04:18.42] But I've got to feed the hunger in my soul;
[04:23.21] And if I never have a nickel I won't ever die of shame
[04:28.41] 'cause I don't believe that no-one wants to know!
