[ar:Stu Larsen]
[00:16.700]I'm wandering these city streets
[00:20.520]There's nothing here for me
[00:24.520]All i see is people running round
[00:28.460]Buying shit they don't need
[00:36.440]There's a man begging down on king street
[00:40.680]And he grabs me by the wrist
[00:43.460]He says 'son, you know what the biggest killer in this world is?
[00:48.220]It's not money, not drugs, not guns.. he said it's
[00:52.260]Loneliness..
[00:54.830]And it's killing me..
[01:00.040]Oh this loneliness
[01:03.160]It's bringing me down
[01:08.600]And he'll sleep where the darkness falls
[01:10.280]He won't get no curtain calls
[01:12.140]And he's only got one pair of shoes
[01:16.040]But he's got more serenity
[01:18.230]Than the rest of humanity
[01:20.160]They've been tricked into waiting in queues
[01:23.970]And his father is dying
[01:25.890]He's got something inside of him
[01:28.380]It makes him feel more wrong than right
[01:32.210]And his mother'd be lying
[01:34.020]If she said she weren't crying
[01:36.120]Herself to sleep every night..
[01:41.890]Every night..
[01:55.450]He sees a woman waiting at the station steps
[01:59.360]Her conversation fills the air
[02:03.280]She's telling the world about the trouble she's seen
[02:07.960]But no one can hear
[02:15.490]He wanders in to a church with it's doors wide open
[02:19.390]He's welcomed in with a half hearted smile
[02:23.350]Some guy tells him he's found all the answers
[02:26.320]To things like money and drugs and guns..
[02:29.590]Old man says 'what about this loneliness?
[02:33.660]Cos it's killing me..
[02:39.200]Oh this loneliness
[02:42.130]It's bringing me down..
[02:46.940]I'll sleep where the darkness falls
[02:49.120]I won't get no curtain calls
[02:51.230]And i've only got one pair of shoes
[02:55.090]But i've got more serenity
[02:56.950]Than the rest of humanity
[02:59.150]They've been tricked into waiting in queues
[03:02.830]And my father is dying
[03:05.000]He's got something inside of him
[03:07.600]It makes him feel more wrong than right
[03:11.350]And my mother'd be lying
[03:13.100]If she said she weren't crying
[03:15.590]Herself to sleep everynight..
[03:35.450]And my father is dying
