[offset:0] |
| [00:19.27] |
Across the city steam and light |
| [00:23.07] |
Off a runway to the manufactured night |
| [00:28.42] |
In storybooks you'll never find |
| [00:32.99] |
In paper armor that you'd mind |
| [00:37.48] |
They'll hold the match to you this time |
| [00:40.28] |
And watch the smoke rings fit the crime |
| [00:46.55] |
In moments you cannot reprise |
| [00:50.49] |
Like a soldier or a watch that you can't wind |
| [00:55.77] |
We fought the world with hands twice-tied |
| [01:00.41] |
The people cheered, the captain cried |
| [01:04.78] |
I'll keep the souvenir inside |
| [01:07.59] |
It's just better in my mind |
| [01:13.13] |
And I wouldn't lie |
| [01:21.67] |
I never really wanted more |
| [01:25.58] |
Than what I ever really needed after all |
| [01:29.93] |
Someone that hates to see me go |
| [01:41.56] |
You made a promise then you hide |
| [01:45.55] |
And you said we'd all be dead by twenty-five |
| [01:50.85] |
It's not your disappointed sigh |
| [01:55.43] |
It's not you traded this for pride |
| [02:00.05] |
Not that we really even mind |
| [02:02.76] |
We're just bored you're still alive |
| [02:08.41] |
And I wouldn't lie |
| [02:17.24] |
If I tried, take me down |
| [02:26.08] |
And if I die here now |
| [03:13.17] |
Wishing wells and magic spells and everything between |
| [03:22.13] |
Can you tell me what it's like |
| [03:26.15] |
Or how it's going to be? |
