[00:19.74]Well you can stay in the town that gave birth to you to return to the earth it's built on
[00:30.05]Or you can run like the river flowing down to the ocean or a road and on each thereon
[00:40.84]And all the music in the world is a swimming pool on the top of the tallest building
[00:51.33]Bubbling up to a boil on the water pealing off those echoing walls
[01:00.90]Please,
[01:02.27]Don't let the fires go out in the factories
[01:08.03]Don't let the fires go out in your house
[01:13.65]Cause I've always been ready for some steady work
[01:19.46]There's never been enough of it to go around
[01:25.21]And I never really know why you stick with me
[01:30.89]I only know I'm still stuck on you
[01:36.57]But if the fires go out in the factories
[01:42.51]Then the fires go out in me too
[01:48.89]And greeting each day with the same heavy hand holds the hand that made the crack in the door
[01:57.33]And lately I've been thinking that the days feel longer as a life gets a little too short
[02:05.89]When weeds grow up in the parking lots we shouldn't tell them that we wanted them to
[02:14.82]And I always hoped that the difference in me would be enough to make a difference to you
[02:24.45]Please,
[02:27.95]Don't let the fires go out in the factories
[02:30.76]Don't let the fires go out in your house
[02:36.14]Cause I've always been ready for some steady work
[02:40.70]There's never been enough of it to go around
[02:46.89]And I never really know why you stick with me
[02:53.08]I only know I'm still stuck on you
[02:55.83]But if the fires go out in the factories
[03:03.26]Then the fires go out in me too
[03:05.85]
[03:33.09]And I never really know why you stick with me
[03:38.15]I only know I'm still stuck on you
[03:44.03]But if the fires go out in the factories
[03:46.40]Then the fires go out in me too
