[00:19.23]Standing firm on this stony ground
[00:23.09]The wind blows hard
[00:24.79]Pulls these clothes around
[00:27.38]I harbour all the same
[00:30.15]Worries as most
[00:31.88]The temptations to leave
[00:33.92]Or to give up the ghost
[00:36.07]
[00:37.16]I wrestle with an outlook on life
[00:41.03]That shifts between darkness
[00:43.20]And shadowy light
[00:45.22]I struggle with words for
[00:47.93]Fear that they'll hear
[00:49.61]
[00:50.12]But orpheus sleeps on his back
[00:53.21]Still dead to the world
[00:56.03]
[00:59.78]Sunlight falls  my wings open wide
[01:03.32]There's a beauty here
[01:05.88]I can not deny
[01:08.10]And bottles that tumble
[01:10.20]And crash on the stairs
[01:12.40]Are just so many people
[01:14.87]I knew never cared
[01:16.85]
[01:17.89]Down below on the wreck
[01:20.44]Of the ship
[01:21.20]Are a stronghold of pleasures
[01:23.90]I couldn't regret
[01:26.08]But the baggage is swallowed up
[01:28.90]By the tide
[01:30.56]As orpheus keeps to his promise
[01:33.91]And stays by my side
[01:37.64]
[01:42.36]Tell me  I've still a lot to learn
[01:49.43]
[01:50.20]Understand
[01:51.49]
[01:54.68]These fires never stop
[01:58.27]
[01:58.91]Believe me  when this joke
[02:04.45]Is tired of laughing
[02:07.57]I will hear the promise of
[02:12.33]My orpheus sing
[02:15.59]
[03:08.39]Sleepers sleep as
[03:09.90]We row the boat
[03:12.08]Just you the weather
[03:14.30]And I gave up hope
[03:16.21]
[03:16.87]But all of the hurdles
[03:18.81]That fell in our laps
[03:20.99]Were fuel for the fire
[03:23.17]And straw for our backs
[03:25.36]
[03:26.31]Still the voices
[03:27.59]
[03:28.10]Have stories to tell
[03:29.83]Of the power struggles
[03:32.48]In heaven and hell
[03:34.62]But we feel secure against
[03:37.19]Such mighty dreams
[03:39.33]As orpheus sings of
[03:41.24]The promise tomorrow may bring
[03:46.49]
[04:09.04]Tell me  I've still a lot to learn
[04:16.70]Understand  these fires never stop
[04:24.90]
[04:25.70]Please believe
[04:28.91]
[04:30.01]When this joke is tired of laughing
[04:34.10]I will hear the promise of
[04:39.12]My orpheus sing
