| [00:00.00] | Life's For the Living (活而活)()-Passenger |
| [00:16.640] | Well grey clouds wrapped round the town like elastic |
| [00:21.130] | Cars stood like toys made of Taiwanese plastic |
| [00:25.320] | The boy laughed at the spastic dancing around in the rain |
| [00:33.630] | While laundrettes cleaned clothes high heals rub toes |
| [00:37.750] | Puddles splashed huddles of bus stop crows |
| [00:42.300] | Dressed in their suits and their boots well they all look the same |
| [00:50.790] | I took myself down to the cafe to find all the boys lost in books and crackling vinyl |
| [00:59.530] | And carved out a poem above the urinal that read |
| [01:07.711] | Don 't you cry for the lost |
| [01:10.271] | Smile for the living |
| [01:12.701] | Get what you need and give what you 're given |
| [01:17.01] | Life 's for the living so live it |
| [01:20.251] | Or you 're better off dead |
| [01:37.791] | While the evening pulled the moon out of it 's packet |
| [01:41.961] | Stars shone like buttons on an old man 's jacket |
| [01:46.211] | We needed a nail but we tacked it 'til it fell of the wall |
| [01:54.541] | While pigeon 's pecked trains sparks flew like planes |
| [01:58.661] | The rain showed the rainbows in the oil stains |
| [02:02.591] | And we all had new iPhones but no one had no one to call |
| [02:11.281] | And I stumbled down to the stomach of the town |
| [02:15.81] | Where the widow takes memories to slowly drown |
| [02:19.271] | With a hand to the sky and a mist in her eye she said |
| [02:27.451] | Don 't you cry for the lost |
| [02:29.941] | Smile for the living |
| [02:32.61] | Get what you need and give what you 're given |
| [02:35.871] | Life 's for the living so live it |
| [02:39.181] | Or you 're better off dead |
| [02:56.431] | Well I 'm sick of this town this blind man 's forage |
| [03:00.791] | They take your dreams down and stick them in storage |
| [03:04.741] | You can have them back son when you 've paid off your mortgage and loans |
| [03:12.981] | Oh hell with this place I 'll go it my own way |
| [03:17.161] | I 'll stick out my thumb and I trudge down the highway |
| [03:21.281] | Someday someone must be going my way home |
| [03:29.91] | Till then I 'll make my bed from a disused car |
| [03:33.401] | With a mattress of leaves and a blanket of stars |
| [03:37.521] | And I 'll stitch the words into my heart with a needle and thread |
| [03:45.761] | Don 't you cry for the lost |
| [03:48.251] | Smile for the living |
| [03:50.431] | Get what you need and give what you 're given |
| [03:54.51] | You know life 's for the living so live it |
| [03:57.551] | Or you 're better off dead |
| [04:02.731] | Don 't you cry for the lost |
| [04:05.781] | Smile for the living |
| [04:08.281] | Get what you need and give what you 're given |
| [04:12.711] | Life 's for the living so live it |
| [04:15.521] | Or you 're better off dead |
