[00:16.35] In the winter when I was eight
[00:22.56] I rode from state to state
[00:25.98] Listening to The Summer of 69
[00:32.22] My brother he sang it, my daddy he drove
[00:36.53] Through the hills of long-forgotten families
[00:40.06] And broken down old homes
[00:43.03] My brother played me cool music
[00:46.62] So I threw out my old tapes
[00:50.84] My childhood stashed up deep and attached
[00:54.20] To my big brother′s place
[00:57.29] Years ago he was my hero and like
[01:00.27] That gets us to the night we went
[01:03.45] We caught bugs, bright light stars, in tight-lidded jars
[01:10.27] But I grew out of it
[01:18.21] The brighter they are, the faster they burn
[01:22.74] Oh, big brother you never did learn
[01:25.63] You strangled all your options
[01:29.16] You sucked out all their breath
[01:32.50] Ken, you’re high as a kite and you’re as low as they get
[01:53.77] You came to the west coast
[01:56.78] On a Sunday
[01:58.48] Robbed dear daddy blind
[02:01.11] Tried to board a train back home
[02:03.92] Sold your pass for cheap white lines
[02:07.28] Daddy came and picked you up
[02:09.76] The car was quiet then
[02:13.75] His head hung like a white flag
[02:15.72] On Monday you did it all again
[02:20.19] The brighter they are, the faster they burn
[02:30.71] Oh, big brother you never did learn
[02:33.94] You strangled all your options
[02:37.41] You sucked out all their breath
[02:40.82] Ken, you’re high as a kite and you’re as low as they get
[02:47.93] And in between the fighting
[02:49.69] The pressure of yourself
[02:51.45] The promise to get better stacked up on a dusty shelf
[02:54.72] You miss the point completely
[02:56.82] Self fulfill your sabotage
[02:58.29] Father taught you how to fish
[03:00.16] Instead you ate the fish he caught
[03:01.82] The brighter they are, the faster they burn
[03:12.03] Oh, big brother you never did learn
[03:15.47] You strangled all your options
[03:18.61] You sucked out all their breath
[03:22.12] Yeah, you’re high as a kite
[03:28.96] The brighter you are, the faster you burn
[03:40.18] Big brother you never did learn
[03:42.56] You strangled all your loved ones
[03:45.98] You sucked out all our breath
[03:49.76] Ken, you’re high as a kite and you’re as low as they get
