[00:12.40] The other America
[00:19.74] You can find her Sundays
[00:24.06] Sitting by a stream
[00:28.16] On her own
[00:31.18] All alone
[00:34.99] The other America
[00:42.04] Might show up on Tuesdays
[00:46.44] At your kitchen door
[00:51.10] She will ask politely
[00:55.58] "Is anybody home?
[01:01.99] Or did they all lay down
[01:08.63] To sleep through the now
[01:14.34] And if they all lay down
[01:20.60] I'll be waiting for them
[01:27.56] At the river bed
[01:32.97] Once they wake from their rest"
[01:40.79]
[01:42.77] The other America
[01:50.06] Takes herself to night school
[01:54.52] To understand the law
[01:59.16] She may bring you questions
[02:03.67] When she finds the flaw
[02:09.99] "Why did they all lay down
[02:16.57] To sleep through the now?
[02:22.40] And if they all lay down
[02:28.40] I'll be waiting for them
[02:35.76] At the river bed
[02:40.86] Once they wake from their rest"
[02:47.86]
[02:52.10] We could be opening a doorway globally
[02:55.84] But that's okay
[02:58.33] Once upon a time you had faith
[03:01.26] You would not be swayed
[03:03.57] By fools untouched by clairvoyance
[03:07.34] And you swore that we'd be brave
[03:10.89] Well not today
[03:13.92] No not today
[03:19.72] Because we all lay down
[03:25.79] To sleep through the now
[03:31.66] And if we all lay down
[03:38.17] She'll be waiting for us
[03:44.92] Where the rivers cross
[03:50.40] Once we wake from our rest
[03:56.70] "All the best," The Other America
[04:08.31]
