[00:15.03] Milk thistle, milk thistle,
[00:17.09]
[00:17.71] Let me down slow,
[00:19.58]
[00:20.58] Help me down slow,
[00:22.39]
[00:22.95] I've been hurryin' on,
[00:26.32] I'm not scared of nothin',
[00:29.19] And I'll go pound for pound,
[00:32.12] I keep death on my mind,
[00:34.93] Like a heavy crown.
[00:38.30] If I go to heaven,
[00:40.48] I'll be bored as hell,
[00:42.92] Like a little baby,
[00:44.66] At the bottom of a well.
[00:48.79]
[00:54.09] Fair child, fair child,
[00:56.11]
[00:56.91] How are you man?
[00:58.55] Did you fix that storefront?
[01:01.55] Did you start that band?
[01:04.42] Don't be scared of nothin',
[01:07.22] You go pound for pound,
[01:09.60] You'll bring peace to midnight,
[01:12.52] Like a spotted owl.
[01:15.65] I'll be rootin' for you,
[01:18.27] Like my favorite team,
[01:21.14] If somebody sweats you,
[01:24.26] You just point 'em out to me.
[01:28.19]
[01:34.74] All the sights and sounds,
[01:37.86]
[01:39.29] This little world's too crowded now,
[01:42.98]
[01:43.66] And there's only one way out.
[01:50.02]
[01:53.65] An elevator ride,
[01:59.20]
[02:01.26] Through the tunnel towards the light,
[02:07.15] And I know where bound,
[02:11.95]
[02:16.13] Keep going up and down,
[02:18.96]
[02:20.70] Up and down.
[02:23.88]
[02:27.88] Newspaper, newspaper
[02:30.25]
[02:30.81] Can't take no more,
[02:32.26] You're here every morning,
[02:35.40] Waitin' at my door.
[02:38.02] And I'm just tryin' to kiss you,
[02:40.82] And you stab my eyes,
[02:43.32] Make me blue forever,
[02:46.13] Like an Allen sky.
[02:49.51] And I'm not pretending,
[02:52.44] That it's all okay,
[02:54.50] Just let me have my coffee,
[02:57.06] Before you take away the day.
[03:01.60]
[03:06.90] Lazarus, Lazarus,
[03:09.59] Why all the tears?
[03:11.60] Did your faithful chauffer just disappear?
[03:17.09] What a lonesome feeling,
[03:19.58] To be just waitin' round,
[03:22.70] Like some washed up actress,
[03:25.01] In a Tinseltown.
[03:28.47] But for the record,
[03:31.11] I'd come pick you up,
[03:33.60] We'll head for the ocean,
[03:36.34] Just say when you've had enogh.
[03:40.40]
[03:46.64] All the light and sound,
[03:50.20]
[03:51.63] This little world's too fragile now,
[03:54.94]
[03:56.00] And there's only one way out.
[04:02.74]
[04:08.04] If you let me slide,
[04:12.35]
[04:13.47] I'll do my best to make things right,
[04:17.17]
[04:17.85] And I know where bound,
[04:24.72]
[04:28.34] Keep going up and down,
[04:31.78]
[04:33.14] Up and down.
[04:35.70]
[04:40.32] Milk thistle, milk thistle,
[04:42.32]
[04:42.94] Let me down slow,
[04:45.07] Just help me down slow,
[04:47.39] I've been carrying on.
[04:50.32] I was poised for greatness,
[04:52.82] I was down and out
[04:55.44] I keep death at my heels
[04:58.43] Like a basset hound
[05:01.30] If i go to heaven,
[05:04.24] I'll be bored as hell,
[05:07.04] Like a crying baby at the bottom of a well.
