[00:19.65]Now, you could be the leaf in the breeze
[00:21.42]Or a dust mote
[00:22.52]Or the blood on the blade of a cutthroat
[00:25.10]Or the lamb
[00:26.30]Or a man, stranded in the tide until he drifts into the sand
[00:29.72]You could play the victim
[00:31.12]You could be the scammed
[00:32.36]You could be the conquered people of the land
[00:34.85]You can be deceived
[00:36.08]You can be the reed
[00:37.45]You could be the clear cut wood or the seeds
[00:40.38]Grow roots, stretch out, expand
[00:42.58]Mimic an old man's lines on his hands
[00:44.89]The rich man's time slips by like a serpent
[00:47.62]Because it can't be bought from a merchant
[00:50.16]Stains won't come out with detergent
[00:52.55]Out, damn spot, out!
[00:54.13]But it's permanent
[00:55.35]So we're burning it
[00:56.47]Pain, we're earning it
[00:57.85]Ask why I gaze up to the firmament
[01:00.75]
[01:20.18]So make haste, and stand still, stuck in place
[01:23.23]Stardust, we're all just stuff in space
[01:25.69]It's tough to grasp, but we must embrace
[01:28.30]And some will come to wonder what the **** is faith
[01:30.90]It is or it isn't, it wasn't or it was
[01:33.39]We're dying to rig the system with a switch or a plug
[01:35.93]We tinker and we nudge
[01:37.08]It's addiction and buzz to put our hands on it
[01:39.51]And snap a stick in the mud
[01:41.00]But time is infinite
[01:42.35]And clock's an instrument
[01:43.44]For you to watch it all tick past in increments
[01:46.12]But if there was a dream, then we're all convinced in it
[01:48.70]All kinds of brilliant minds and simpletons
[01:51.37]I've heard it said that the eyes are the windows in
[01:53.93]The shining dancing bonfires in the winter
[01:56.08]There's a light within
[01:57.13]And if you find you begin to smell smoke
[01:59.44]It's 'cause I use the rhymes as kindling
[02:01.61]
[02:36.65][02:31.62][02:26.60][02:21.50]round round we go
[02:33.76][02:23.620]we gotta go off what we know
[02:38.80][02:28.75]till we all end up alone
