[00:07.53] |
And so the clock strikes twelve as we find ourselves |
[00:10.29] |
In a sphere of a clearing in a navy light |
[00:13.00] |
There are no stars, just the bars of a cars headlights |
[00:16.33] |
On the leaves in the dead of the night |
[00:18.53] |
Silhouette suits step out of the shadows |
[00:21.13] |
Into the arena where the cameras roll |
[00:23.79] |
See their shoulders strain below the weight of the spades |
[00:26.39] |
Stereo plays for a funeral |
[00:29.45] |
They say the moon is nearly full |
[00:34.87] |
They see their eyes are nearly dry |
[00:40.12] |
They know how wonderful, how wonderful it is |
[00:44.42] |
To be alive tonight |
[00:49.13] |
I leave myself to the earth |
[00:54.52] |
To the air |
[00:57.16] |
To the ashes |
[00:59.78] |
Its my time |
[01:02.52] |
Its my design |
[01:05.50] |
Its my turn |
[01:10.55] |
And I know I wont be loved |
[01:16.06] |
Wont be saved |
[01:18.60] |
Wont be noticed |
[01:21.96] |
Until I learn to love |
[01:26.45] |
I hate to learn |
[01:54.20] |
To my best beloved I do bequeath |
[01:56.98] |
All the anguish and the irony |
[01:59.69] |
And all the things we never meant |
[02:02.56] |
And those we set out to prevent |
[02:05.13] |
I leave the twisted bittersends |
[02:07.65] |
Send soulem grace of concequence |
[02:10.48] |
The hand he let lent ungratefully |
[02:12.94] |
I don't intent to take away the mean |
[02:16.20] |
He had a solid alabi |
[02:21.53] |
You know I never saw him cry? |
[02:26.31] |
I leave myself to the earth |
[02:30.53] |
To the air |
[02:33.18] |
To the ashes |
[02:36.10] |
Its my time |
[02:38.64] |
Its my design |
[02:41.50] |
Its my turn |
[02:46.65] |
And I know I wont be loved |
[02:51.93] |
Wont be saved |
[02:54.72] |
Wont be noticed |
[02:57.61] |
Until I learn to love |
[03:02.66] |
I hate to learn |
[03:14.47] |
And the clock strikes one |
[03:15.59] |
and my time is done |
[03:16.83] |
and I know he won't miss me when I'm gone. |
[03:19.56] |
I just raise a toast to my sweet trevouse` |
[03:22.22] |
and feel glad that the chapter's closed |
[03:31.12] |
This is my early grave |
[03:34.77] |
Where I wait for the light to let me in |
[03:42.65] |
Here it comes around again |
[03:50.60] |
And I say |
[03:53.21] |
Let the light shows and the sounds |
[03:58.69] |
Of the orchestra begin |
[04:04.08] |
My eternal requiem |
[04:11.93] |
For an early grave. |
