| [00:16.700] |
I'm wandering these city streets |
| [00:20.520] |
There's nothing here for me |
| [00:24.520] |
All i see is people running round |
| [00:28.460] |
Buying shit they don't need |
| [00:36.440] |
There's a man begging down on king street |
| [00:40.680] |
And he grabs me by the wrist |
| [00:43.460] |
He says 'son, you know what the biggest killer in this world is? |
| [00:48.220] |
It's not money, not drugs, not guns.. he said it's |
| [00:52.260] |
Loneliness.. |
| [00:54.830] |
And it's killing me.. |
| [01:00.040] |
Oh this loneliness |
| [01:03.160] |
It's bringing me down |
| [01:08.600] |
And he'll sleep where the darkness falls |
| [01:10.280] |
He won't get no curtain calls |
| [01:12.140] |
And he's only got one pair of shoes |
| [01:16.040] |
But he's got more serenity |
| [01:18.230] |
Than the rest of humanity |
| [01:20.160] |
They've been tricked into waiting in queues |
| [01:23.970] |
And his father is dying |
| [01:25.890] |
He's got something inside of him |
| [01:28.380] |
It makes him feel more wrong than right |
| [01:32.210] |
And his mother'd be lying |
| [01:34.020] |
If she said she weren't crying |
| [01:36.120] |
Herself to sleep every night.. |
| [01:41.890] |
Every night.. |
| [01:55.450] |
He sees a woman waiting at the station steps |
| [01:59.360] |
Her conversation fills the air |
| [02:03.280] |
She's telling the world about the trouble she's seen |
| [02:07.960] |
But no one can hear |
| [02:15.490] |
He wanders in to a church with it's doors wide open |
| [02:19.390] |
He's welcomed in with a half hearted smile |
| [02:23.350] |
Some guy tells him he's found all the answers |
| [02:26.320] |
To things like money and drugs and guns.. |
| [02:29.590] |
Old man says 'what about this loneliness? |
| [02:33.660] |
Cos it's killing me.. |
| [02:39.200] |
Oh this loneliness |
| [02:42.130] |
It's bringing me down.. |
| [02:46.940] |
I'll sleep where the darkness falls |
| [02:49.120] |
I won't get no curtain calls |
| [02:51.230] |
And i've only got one pair of shoes |
| [02:55.090] |
But i've got more serenity |
| [02:56.950] |
Than the rest of humanity |
| [02:59.150] |

| [03:02.830] |

| [03:11.350] |
And my mother'd be lying |
| [03:13.100] |

And my father is dying |

If she said she weren't crying |

Everynight.. |
| [04:13.450] |
Everynight.. |
| [04:17.490] |
Everynight.. |
| [04:23.140] |
I'm wandering these city streets |
| [04:27.020] |
There's nothing here for me |
