歌词

[00:22.75] I climbed to the top of this mountain
[00:27.20] with no fear of tumbling down.
[00:31.69] For one brief moment in time
[00:35.66] I freed my mind of this town.
[00:39.13] Got clear sight of lights on the hills
[00:44.42] just outside the city's grip
[00:48.94] and just like that, just like that
[00:53.28] I let the moment sleep.
[00:57.45] Every face seems familiar on these crowded streets,
[01:01.99] Sidewalks sway to the beat of my stammering feet,
[01:06.97] Lost in a world of handshakes and receipts,
[01:11.46] I hear a song it's calling out to me.
[01:34.40] The people are aligned on the road like candle pins.
[01:44.80] Wobbling above gutters humming old retired hymns.
[01:52.39] Can't you see it's all a cavalcade of delusion stares
[02:00.12] and just like that, just like that we are prone to disappear.
[02:10.22] Every face seems familiar on these crowded streets,
[02:14.42] Sidewalks sway to the beat of my stammering feet,
[02:19.28] Lost in a world of handshakes and receipts,
[02:24.60] I hear a song it's calling out to me.
[02:33.13] What's the price that you pay
[02:38.65] for living everyday
[02:43.51] like a number on a docket,
[02:48.36] a dollar to be saved?
[02:52.37] What's the price you pay
[02:56.97] when you give yourself away
[03:01.39] with swollen fists in your pocket,
[03:05.38] from the workhouse to your grave?
[03:13.00] Let's pray we don't end up this way.
