| [00:31] |
I bless you madly, |
| [00:35] |
sadly as I tie my shoes |
| [00:39] |
I love you badly, |
| [00:42] |
Just in time, at times, I guess |
| [00:50] |
Because of you I need to rest |
| [00:56] |
Because it's you that sets the test |
| [01:04] |
So much has gone and little is new |
| [01:11] |
And as the sparrow sings |
| [01:17] |
Dawn chorus for |
| [01:21] |
Someone else to hear |
| [01:26] |
The Thinker sits alone growing older |
| [01:37] |
And so bitter |
| [01:41] |
"I gave Them life |
| [01:43] |
I gave Them all |
| [01:46] |
They drained my very soul |
| [01:48] |
...dry |
| [01:52] |
I crushed my heart to ease their pains |
| [01:55] |
No thought for me remains there |
| [02:01] |
Nothing can They spare |
| [02:04] |
What of me? |
| [02:09] |
Who praised their efforts to be free? |
| [02:15] |
Words of strength and care and sympathy |
| [02:23] |
I opened doors that would have blocked their way |
| [02:29] |
I braved their cause to guide, for little pay |
| [02:37] |
I ravaged at my finance just for those |
| [02:43] |
Those whose claims were steeped in peace, tranquility |
| [02:51] |
Those who said a new world, new ways ever free |
| [02:57] |
Those whose promises stretched in hope and grace for me" |
| [03:17] |
I bless you madly, |
| [03:20] |
sadly as I tie my shoes |
| [03:25] |
I love you badly, just in time, at times, I guess |
| [03:35] |
Because of you I need to rest, oh yes |
| [03:44] |
Because it's you that sets the test |
| [03:49] |
So much has gone and little is new |
| [03:57] |
And as the sunrise stream |
| [04:04] |
Flickers on me, |
| [04:10] |
My friends talk |
| [04:12] |
Of glory, untold dream, |
| [04:18] |
where all is God and God is just a word |
| [04:28] |
"We had a friend, a talking man |
| [04:32] |
Who spoke of many powers that he had |
| [04:39] |
Not of the best of men, but Ours |
| [04:42] |
We used him |
| [04:44] |
We let him use his powers |
| [04:49] |
We let him fill Our needs |
| [04:52] |
Now We are strong |
| [04:56] |
And the road is coming to its end |
| [05:03] |
Now the damned have no time to make amends |
| [05:10] |
No purse of token fortune stands in Our way |
| [05:17] |
The silent guns of love will blast the sky |
| [05:24] |
We broke the ruptured structure built of age |
| [05:31] |
Our weapons were the tongues of crying rage |
| [05:38] |
Where money stood |
| [05:40] |
We planted seeds of rebirth |
| [05:45] |
And stabbed the backs of fathers |
| [05:49] |
Sons of dirt |
| [05:52] |
Infiltrated business cesspools |
| [05:55] |
Hating through Our sleeves |
| [05:59] |
Yea, and We slit the Catholic throat |
| [06:02] |
Stoned the poor on slogans such as |
| [06:05] |
'Wish You Could Hear' |
| [06:06] |
'Love Is All We Need' |
| [06:08] |
'Kick Out The Jams' |
| [06:10] |
'Kick Out Your Mother' |
| [06:12] |
'Cut Up Your Friend' |
| [06:14] |
'Screw Up Your Brother or He'll Get You In the End' |
| [06:18] |
And We Know the Flag of Love is from Above |
| [06:26] |
And We Can Force You to Be Free |
| [06:30] |
And We Can Force You to Believe" |
| [06:36] |
And I close my eyes and tighten up my brain |
| [06:39] |
For I once read a book in which the lovers were slain |
| [06:43] |
For they knew not the words of the Free States' refrain |
| [06:47] |
It said: |
| [06:48] |
"I believe in the Power of Good |
| [06:52] |
I Believe in the State of Love |
| [06:55] |
I Will Fight For the Right to be Right |
| [06:58] |
I Will Kill for the Good of the Fight for the Right to be Right" |
| [07:05] |
And I open my eyes to look around |
| [07:10] |
And I see a child laid slain on the ground |
| [07:17] |
As a love machine lumbers through desolation rows |
| [07:24] |
Ploughing down man, woman, listening to its command |
| [07:30] |
But not hearing anymore |
| [07:33] |
Not hearing anymore |
| [07:40] |
Just the shrieks from the old rich |
| [07:48] |
And I Want to Believe |
| [07:52] |
In the madness that calls 'Now' |
| [07:56] |
And I want to Believe |
| [07:59] |
That a light's shining through |
| [08:01] |
Somehow |
| [08:02] |
And I Want to Believe |
| [08:06] |
And You Want to Believe |
| [08:09] |
And We Want to Believe |
| [08:12] |
And We Want to Live |
| [08:16] |
Oh, We Want to Live |
| [08:20] |
We Want to Live |
| [08:40] |
I want to live |
| [09:02] |
Live |
