[00:38.29]in the choir we can forget
[00:39.42]forgive ourselves and maybe get some sleep
[00:42.42]every morning we make choices
[00:44.23]to kill ourselves for someone else's dream
[00:46.73]we try to make our own inventions
[00:48.42]but we stop trying when these hills look too steep
[00:50.98]every morning we make choices
[00:52.61]to kill ourselves 'cause we can't even dream, anymore
[00:55.86]the clock says it's two a.m.
[00:59.98]we wake up at four
[01:04.30]in the choir we can forget
[01:06.11]turn out the lights and think of how we sleep
[01:08.30]if we just get off all these fixtures
[01:10.30]furniture, powered in the streets
[01:12.67]stop paying rent, don't go to work,
[01:14.80]move to a new town and change your name
[01:17.11]buy a new car, watch different films,
[01:19.42]read different books, but you laugh the same
[01:22.05]
[01:39.71]the towns we lived in
[01:40.90]a distant memory
[01:42.96]burned your own house down
[01:45.03]when you were seventeen
[01:47.21]the towns we lived in
[01:49.40]a distant memory
[01:51.53]burned your own house down
[01:53.96]when you were seventeen
[01:56.46]aspirations in the rubble of the front door
[02:00.15]swinging like a wrecking ball
[02:02.28]travel right on through the floor
[02:04.28]tied up in a basement, next to classes to forget
[02:08.15]all those stupid dreams that fall behind
[02:10.65]the college degrees that you buy, anymore
[02:17.52]the clock says it's two a.m.
[02:18.96]we wake up at four
[02:22.46]we just can't dream anymore
