[00:29.00]Good days, bad days, I've had a few of those,
[00:34.71]Same old story-I know how this song goes,
[00:39.68]At least I did, but now I'm not so sure,
[00:44.57]Nothing's in its place, nothing's certain anymore,
[00:51.68]Birds fly, trees sway, why can't I be like that?
[00:57.47]Happ knowing what I am, in fact and leaving be?
[01:05.35]But truth has been obscured,
[01:07.66]I am only human and I'm always wanting...more.
[01:13.27]
[01:13.87]Oh, the world is a place and they say it's on our side,
[01:19.59]But I wonder, is there comfort in those moments when we die?
[01:25.36]Now I see, Mr. King, this was in the books you gave me,
[01:31.16]Which I read, disbelieving, thinking poets are depressed,
[01:37.92]Oh, Mr. King, I have changed, I confess.
[01:54.58]
[01:54.79]Oh, those good days I remember well,
[02:00.43]Tape on windows, wintertime was hell,
[02:05.30]But it was fun, and people there were kind,
[02:10.17]There was good work to be done, and I learnt to think my time.
[02:15.77]
[02:16.77]And the world was a good place, and in days were where I lived,
[02:22.55]I imagined life had purpose and I'd something good to give,
[02:28.28]Mr. Cave played along on the battered hallway piano,
[02:34.63]Oh, every love song a secret to be shared,
[02:40.92]Oh, Mr. King, how I wish I was back there.
[02:52.28]
[03:08.75]Now, I've got 10 things lined up on a shelf,
[03:14.39]Reasons to be cheerful for myself,
[03:19.31]I don't know why you're showing me the sky,
[03:24.56]You say you see heaven,
[03:26.59]I see hell, but want to try.
[03:29.98]
[03:31.03]And the world is a place, and I pray it's on my side,
[03:36.75]But I'd find greater comfort if I just lay down and died,
[03:42.46]I don't know what's become of the girl who once knew sunshine,
[03:48.90]What's become of the girl who knew sorrow but was strong?
[03:54.90]Oh, Mr. King you were right, all along,
[04:01.14]Mr. King you were right,
[04:06.09]Oh, Mr. King, you were right-I was wrong.
[04:13.98]
