[00:49.10] It's the farthest place I've ever been
[00:54.75]
[00:58.05] It's a new frontier for me
[01:02.52]
[01:07.65] And you balance things like you wouldn't believe
[01:13.30]
[01:16.35] When you should just let things be
[01:18.94]
[01:27.79] Yes you juggle things cause you can't lose sight
[01:33.13]
[01:34.65] Of the wretched story line
[01:37.88]
[01:42.34] It's the narrative that must go on
[01:47.46]
[01:50.05] Until the end of time
[01:54.13]
[02:06.62] And you're guilty of some self-neglect
[02:11.12]
[02:13.69] And the mind unravels for days
[02:17.97]
[02:22.74] I've told you once
[02:24.94]
[02:26.77] Yes a thousand times
[02:29.45]
[02:32.61] I'm better off this way
[02:35.23]
[02:41.91] I'm better off
[02:43.42]
[02:45.02] This way
[02:46.55]
[02:57.82] Where's my queen of hearts my royal flush
[03:03.53]
[03:05.32] I have cleaned and scrubbed her decks
[03:10.13]
[03:14.65] A suicide my better days
[03:20.25]
[03:23.38] There's nothing I regret
[03:26.55]
[03:36.88] I've placed the gods in a zip-lock bag
[03:43.16]
[03:44.75] I've put them in a drawer
[03:47.52]
[03:51.21] They've refused my prayers for the umpteenth time
[03:56.83]
[03:57.72] So I'm evening up the score
[04:01.68]
[04:04.72] Small metal gods from a casting line
[04:10.40]
[04:11.02] From a factory in Mumbai
[04:15.48]
[04:18.64] Some manual labourer's bread and butter
[04:24.98]
[04:27.16] And a single-minded life
[04:30.81]
[04:37.94] Small metal gods cheap souvenirs
[04:44.12] You've abandoned me for sure
[04:48.43]
[04:52.12] I'm dumping you my childish things
[04:58.33]
[05:01.88] I'm evening up the score
