Well you can stay in the town that gave birth to you to return to the earth it's built on |
| [00:30.05] |
Or you can run like the river flowing down to the ocean or a road and on each thereon |
| [00:40.84] |
And all the music in the world is a swimming pool on the top of the tallest building |
| [00:51.33] |
Bubbling up to a boil on the water pealing off those echoing walls |
| [01:00.90] |
Please, |
| [01:02.27] |
Don't let the fires go out in the factories |
| [01:08.03] |
Don't let the fires go out in your house |
| [01:13.65] |
Cause I've always been ready for some steady work |
| [01:19.46] |
There's never been enough of it to go around |
| [01:25.21] |
And I never really know why you stick with me |
| [01:30.89] |
I only know I'm still stuck on you |
| [01:36.57] |
But if the fires go out in the factories |
| [01:42.51] |
Then the fires go out in me too |
| [01:48.89] |
And greeting each day with the same heavy hand holds the hand that made the crack in the door |
| [01:57.33] |
And lately I've been thinking that the days feel longer as a life gets a little too short |
| [02:05.89] |
When weeds grow up in the parking lots we shouldn't tell them that we wanted them to |
| [02:14.82] |
And I always hoped that the difference in me would be enough to make a difference to you |
| [02:24.45] |
Please, |
| [02:27.95] |
Don't let the fires go out in the factories |
| [02:30.76] |
Don't let the fires go out in your house |
| [02:36.14] |
Cause I've always been ready for some steady work |
| [02:40.70] |
There's never been enough of it to go around |
| [02:46.89] |
And I never really know why you stick with me |
| [02:53.08] |
I only know I'm still stuck on you |
| [02:55.83] |
But if the fires go out in the factories |
| [03:03.26] |
Then the fires go out in me too |
| [03:05.85] |
|
| [03:33.09] |
And I never really know why you stick with me |
| [03:38.15] |
I only know I'm still stuck on you |
| [03:44.03] |
But if the fires go out in the factories |
| [03:46.40] |
Then the fires go out in me too |
