[ar:Peter Gabriel]
[00:31.06] Did you think that your feet had been bound
[00:36.92] By what gravity brings to the ground
[00:43.67] Did you feel you were tricked
[00:46.07] By the future you picked
[00:49.02] Well come on down
[00:55.46] All those rules don't apply
[00:58.37] When you're high in the sky
[01:01.32] So come on down
[01:04.52] Come on down
[01:07.02] We're coming down to the ground
[01:10.69] There's no better place to go
[01:13.59] We've got snow up on the mountains
[01:16.79] We've got rivers down below
[01:19.25] We're coming down to the ground
[01:22.70] We hear the birds sing in the trees
[01:25.92] And the land will be looked after
[01:28.82] We send the seeds out in the breeze
[01:39.88] Did you think you'd escaped from routine
[01:45.84] By changing the script and the scene
[01:52.35] Despite all you made of it
[01:55.30] You're always afraid
[01:57.80] Of the change
[02:04.09] You've got a lot on your chest
[02:06.99] Well you can come as my guest
[02:09.99] So come on down
[02:13.14] Come on down
[02:15.69] We're coming down to the ground
[02:19.30] There's no better place to go
[02:22.25] We've got snow up on the mountains
[02:25.36] We've got rivers down below
[02:27.81] We're coming down to the ground
[02:31.27] We hear the birds sing in the trees
[02:34.57] And the land will be looked after
[02:37.49] We send the seeds out in the breeze
[02:44.75] Like the fish in the ocean
[02:48.85] We felt at home in the sea
[02:52.85] We learned to live off the good land
[02:56.90] Learned to climb up a tree
[03:00.95] Then we got up on two legs
[03:04.95] But we wanted to fly
[03:09.11] When we messed up our homeland
[03:13.21] We set sail for the sky
[03:16.46] We're coming down to the ground
[03:19.83] There's no better place to go
[03:22.74] We've got snow up on the mountains
[03:25.89] We've got rivers down below
[03:28.34] We're coming down to the ground
[03:31.84] We hear the birds sing in the trees
[03:35.04] And the land will be looked after
[03:37.89] We send the seeds out in the breeze
[03:40.89] We're coming down
[03:44.04] Coming down to Earth
[03:46.94] Like babies at birth
[03:50.05] Coming down to Earth
[03:52.90] We're gonna find new priorities
[03:56.05] These are extraordinary qualities
[04:05.15] We're coming down to the ground
[04:08.61] There's no better place to go
[04:11.67] We've got snow up on the mountains
[04:14.72] We've got rivers down below
[04:17.22] We're coming down to the ground
[04:20.62] We hear the birds sing in the trees
[04:23.87] And the land will be looked after
[04:26.77] We send the seeds out in the breeze
[04:29.82] We're coming down to the ground
[04:32.88] There's no better place to go
[04:35.98] We've got snow up on the mountains
[04:39.08] We've got rivers down below
[04:41.63] We're coming down to the ground
[04:45.09] We hear the birds sing in the trees
[04:48.29] And the land will be looked after
[04:51.19] We send the seeds out in the breeze
[04:53.95] We're gonna find new priorities
[04:57.05] These are extraordinary qualities
