[00:21.56] Allie, what would you do?
[00:24.84] When there's bombs in the middle east,
[00:26.62] you want to hurt yourself,
[00:28.15] When there's knives in the city streets,
[00:29.78] you want to end yourself,
[00:31.40] When there's fun in your mother's house,
[00:33.36] you want to cry yourself to sleep.
[00:39.00] Allie, what would you do?
[00:41.69] With your fears,
[00:43.20] because they're adding one by one
[00:45.27] And your mountains are obscured behind the sun
[00:48.38] And the person that
[00:50.52] you could be is crumbling into dust.
[00:54.25] You're in the mess 'cause you thought
[00:57.41] You'd be someone else
[00:58.94] 'cause the tricks in your head are a lie
[01:02.54] Yeah, the tricks in your head are a lie
[01:05.88] Yeah, the tricks in your head are a lie
[01:13.29] Allie, hand on your head
[01:16.32] And a prayer from the
[01:18.11] soon-to-be-closing library
[01:19.77] And if you looked from here,
[01:21.44] you would surely see
[01:23.15] There's a softness in your heart,
[01:24.80] there's a poetry to come
[01:28.72] You bought that gun 'cause you thought
[01:30.25] You'd be someone else
[01:33.50] 'cause the tricks in your head are a lie
[01:37.10] Yeah, the tricks in your head are a lie
[01:40.52] Yeah, the tricks in your head are a lie
[01:48.03] You made a list of all your heroes
[01:51.30] And you thought about
[01:52.96] what they went through
[01:55.06] Yeah, you thought about
[01:56.28] what they went through.
[01:58.65] It's much darker, much harder,
[02:00.53] than anything that happened to you
[02:23.65] Allie, what would you do?
[02:26.49] When your seven-year plan
[02:29.82] happens to someone else,
[02:30.35] And the people in your life
[02:31.68] you would happily shelf,
[02:33.52] When day falls night,
[02:35.16] you are truly on your own?
[02:38.98] You're in this place 'cause you thought
[02:42.59] You'd be someone else
[02:44.43] But the tricks in your head are a lie
[02:47.35] Yeah, the tricks in your head are a lie
[02:50.74] Yeah, the tricks in your head are a lie
[02:54.97]
