[al:The Human Contradiction]
[00:03.59]I once had an understanding that everything would go my way
[00:14.16]But now we’ve come too far along for me to hold on to my own beliefs
[00:24.00]I’m not in it for the fun of it but for the pain
[00:29.11]I’m not at all interested in your temporary fame
[00:34.11]I just want to see you stare
[00:37.44]As I lay my soul bare for you
[00:40.04]to crush upon with heavy feet
[00:43.90]I’m in it for the beat
[01:06.23]Stranger the faces
[01:08.53]Stranger the places
[01:10.19]They’re becoming us
[01:16.06]Here come the vultures
[01:18.86]Here come the vultures
[01:20.46]Heading over us
[01:25.63]It’s just a black murder of crows
[01:29.33]Across the sky
[01:32.12]The moon announces that it will soon be night
[01:36.99]The light dies down
[01:40.13]The spot goes on
[01:42.38]As loveless lips
[01:44.64]Break into song
[01:49.70]I once had an understanding that everything would go my way
[01:59.82]But now we’ve come too far along for me to hold on to my own beliefs
[02:09.79]I’m not in it for the fun of it but for the pain
[02:14.99]I’m not at all interested in your temporary fame
[02:20.02]And the same old song we sing
[02:36.27]Here’s to the ghost
[02:37.38]We still seem to host
[02:39.89]How he’s becoming us
[02:46.51]Here come the vultures
[02:49.27]Here come the vultures
[02:50.62]Screaming down at us
[02:55.94]They said you can not sing the blues
[02:59.19]When you’re pretty and young
[03:02.10]Let me show you a face that fits to neither one
[03:07.16]This heart is black
[03:10.02]like blood that has dried
[03:12.84]This song is blue
[03:14.79]Like bruises bright
[03:20.45]I once had an understanding that everything would go my way
[03:30.24]But now we’ve come too far along for me to hold on to my own beliefs
[03:40.06]I’m not in it for the fun of it but for the pain
[03:45.20]I’m not at all interested in your temporary fame
[03:50.37]And the same old song we sing
[05:09.05]Murder of crows across the sky
[05:13.91]The moon announces that it will soon be night
[05:19.08]Fog closes in
[05:21.69]And all I see All empty eyes
[05:26.41]Through silent screams
[05:31.72]I once had an understanding that everything would go my way
[05:41.87]But now we’ve come to far along for me to hold on to my own beliefs
[05:51.34]I’m in it for the beat
