[ti:Birthright (feat. Jon Foreman)]
[ar:Sleeping at Last]
[al:Yearbook Collection]
[00:00.00] She was raised by wolves
[00:06.16] In the warmth of their fur
[00:11.09] Surrounded by fangs
[00:16.12] She knew that she was secure
[00:20.56] Language barriers
[00:23.35] Made no difference at all
[00:27.73] When you're truly cared for
[00:31.87] There's no purpose for walls
[00:39.24] His fences stood tall
[00:43.43] As the shoulders of old
[00:47.66] But he dreamt that one day
[00:50.69] Maybe he'd break the mold
[00:54.68] But time shyly stands still
[00:58.63] When you watch it unfold
[01:02.91] From these ivory towers
[01:07.29] Freedom is only a ghost
[01:15.14] Right or wrong
[01:19.53] Tension makes us stronger
[01:25.36] By making us weak
[01:30.97] When we needed to be
[01:36.14] Privilege and pain
[01:41.07] When compared look the same
[01:46.59] Comprehension begins
[01:53.45] When we pull back the lens
[02:00.52] They made her their queen
[02:05.35] On the day she was born
[02:10.41] They placed on her a crown
[02:14.21] She wasn't ready for
[02:18.29] But all impossible odds
[02:21.56] Foreshadow our means
[02:25.54] Like paving a road
[02:29.78] To kingdoms we've never seen
[02:36.71] He woke up one day
[02:41.25] Written out of the will
[02:44.63] They swore he'd be okay
[02:49.37] With lesser shoes to fill
[02:53.40] “what doesn't kill us
[02:56.42] Makes us stronger,” they say
[03:00.78] Our only birthright in this life
[03:04.67] Is the breath that we take
[03:12.24] Right or wrong
[03:16.96] Tension makes us stronger
[03:22.65] By making us weak
[03:28.99] When we needed to be
[03:33.73] Privilege and pain
[03:38.52] When compared look the same
[03:44.00] Comprehension begins
[03:49.38] When we pull back the lens
[03:54.77] Our fables tell our truths
