[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
