[00:00.24] Islands - Sara Bareilles
[00:01.37] .
[00:16.65] Waiting for the bus stop
[00:21.09] Waiting for the concrete black top to settle down
[00:28.28] Long enough for me to get off and get a little ground
[00:37.21] I’m ready for the sea change
[00:45.78] Helpless felt this coming from a mile away
[00:52.34] And now you’re looking at me babe,
[00:56.28] and how we’ll separate if we can
[01:00.72] Cause I still count on one hand
[01:05.22] the number of good men I know
[01:09.16] .
[01:14.15] It’s like I’m standing on the edge
[01:17.34] with just a telephone wire
[01:20.03] Trying to get to you first to say the world’s on fire
[01:27.46] Holding my breath until I know
[01:30.22] you’re alright because the water will only rise
[01:36.34] When will you realize
[01:39.22] You must become an island
[01:45.42] You must become an island
[01:50.78] You must become an island
[01:56.28] And see for yourself that that’s what I am
[02:03.21] .
[02:16.45] You always dirty up the windows
[02:20.76] If you keep ‘em at bay
[02:22.39] that way no one’s gonna surprise
[02:24.89] you by getting too close
[02:28.26] Anybody but me though
[02:32.15] You’ve made exceptions to you rules
[02:36.84] And now we’re staring down
[02:38.76] truth neither one of us wants to know
[02:45.09] .
[02:50.33] It’s like I’m standing on the edge
[02:53.30] with just a telephone wire
[02:56.05] Trying to get to you first
[02:58.99] to say the world’s on fire
[03:03.42] Holding my breath until I know
[03:06.42] you’re alright because the water will only rise
[03:12.48] When will you realize
[03:15.30] You must become an island
[03:21.42] You must become an island
[03:26.55] You must become an island
[03:32.73] And see for yourself the horizon is all we have
[03:44.86] The horizon is all we have
[03:54.41] .
[04:03.61] Holding my breath until I know
[04:06.23] you’re alright because the water will only rise…
