| [00:01.52] |
|
| [00:23.11] |
I'm buckle in my seat belt |
| [00:25.35] |
Plug my headset in a chair |
| [00:27.65] |
|
| [00:28.43] |
And to the music |
| [00:29.45] |
I watch flight attendants move |
| [00:32.60] |
|
| [00:34.19] |
They are pointing out the exits |
| [00:37.15] |
But it looks more like a prayer |
| [00:39.06] |
|
| [00:39.83] |
Or an ancient dance their |
| [00:41.52] |
Bloodline reaches through |
| [00:43.82] |
|
| [00:45.62] |
These planes are built for sifting |
| [00:48.05] |
Through the warriors from the men |
| [00:50.47] |
|
| [00:51.01] |
I've got time to sit and |
| [00:52.79] |
Watch them for a while |
| [00:54.72] |
|
| [00:56.07] |
You can see everywhere they're going |
| [00:58.91] |
|
| [00:59.99] |
Everywhere they've been |
| [01:01.50] |
|
| [01:02.19] |
And how they look out at the |
| [01:04.17] |
Clouds each time they smile |
| [01:06.09] |
|
| [01:07.64] |
And I think maybe he's in |
| [01:09.90] |
Town for someone's birthday |
| [01:12.08] |
|
| [01:14.23] |
Maybe he makes trouble everywhere |
| [01:17.14] |
|
| [01:19.01] |
But as much he resists the |
| [01:20.45] |
Conversation between the |
| [01:22.61] |
Rivers and the freeways |
| [01:24.69] |
|
| [01:26.00] |
He knows it's always there |
| [01:28.99] |
|
| [01:30.93] |
As the northwest passage sits |
| [01:33.08] |
Somewhere below me as I sleep |
| [01:36.01] |
I dream of captains and |
| [01:37.72] |
Explorers eating boots |
| [01:40.66] |
|
| [01:42.09] |
When I ask if I can join them |
| [01:44.51] |
|
| [01:45.05] |
And they offer one to me |
| [01:47.18] |
|
| [01:47.87] |
I wake up as my home comes into view |
| [01:52.48] |
|
| [01:53.38] |
So I reach out down for my notebook |
| [01:55.94] |
To see what impressions could be spun |
| [01:58.58] |
But it's just buildings |
| [02:00.03] |
And a million swimming pools |
| [02:02.67] |
|
| [02:04.60] |
So I leaf back through the |
| [02:06.38] |
Pages to see where I am from |
| [02:10.08] |
Or for some crumbling map |
| [02:11.71] |
Of what it's leading to |
| [02:13.69] |
|
| [02:15.36] |
And I find that the hero in |
| [02:17.29] |
This song that I am writing |
| [02:19.94] |
|
| [02:21.89] |
Doesn't know he's just |
| [02:23.09] |
An image of myself |
| [02:25.03] |
|
| [02:26.84] |
But as much he resists the |
| [02:28.36] |
Conversation between |
| [02:30.55] |
The rivers and the freeways |
| [02:32.54] |
|
| [02:33.37] |
He's somehow always |
| [02:34.62] |
Asking them for help |
| [02:36.38] |
|
| [03:23.84] |
I want to make out all the signs |
| [03:26.54] |
I've been ignoring |
| [03:27.77] |
|
| [03:29.68] |
How the trees reach for the sky |
| [03:32.42] |
Or in the length of someone's hair |
| [03:34.46] |
|
| [03:36.25] |
'Cause when you don't |
| [03:37.21] |
Know where you are going |
| [03:38.90] |
|
| [03:42.14] |
Any road will take you there |
| [03:44.40] |
|
| [03:46.85] |
So maybe I'm in town |
| [03:48.83] |
For someone's birthday |
| [03:50.50] |
|
| [03:52.62] |
Maybe I make trouble everywhere |
| [03:55.40] |
|
| [03:57.36] |
But as much I resist the |
| [03:58.65] |
Conversation between the |
| [04:00.83] |
Rivers and the freeways |
| [04:03.08] |
|
| [04:04.31] |
I know it's always there |
| [04:06.83] |
|
| [04:09.83] |
I know it's always there |
| [04:12.28] |
|
| [04:15.47] |
I know it's always there |
