[00:16.31]You wanna save ’em from their heartbreaks
[00:19.35]You gotta let ’em make their own mistakes
[00:22.44]You could prepare ’em for the world you knew
[00:25.08]But now you haven’t got a damn clue
[00:28.25]Take a minute and realize
[00:31.19]How every negative is amplified
[00:34.02]It’s a prison, we should go outside
[00:37.18]The algorithm isn’t on our side
[00:39.93]I can’t expect you
[00:42.88]To know I’ll protect you
[00:45.65]No matter where you trek to
[00:48.53]I’ll come collect you
[00:51.57]I’ll come, yes, I’ll be
[00:54.57]Wherever you need me
[00:57.35]That’s a lifetime guarantee
[01:00.86]And you get all that for free
[01:03.36]I never was spiritual
[01:06.25]Now everything is virtual
[01:09.37]I’m trying to write a simple song
[01:11.92]Thought it was easy, I was dead wrong
[01:14.69]Somebody hit me to it somehow
[01:17.54]I get the drift if it’s real loud
[01:20.75]It’s pretty nifty when you’re young and proud
[01:23.84]But I’ve been 50 for a while now
[01:26.68]I can’t expect you
[01:29.53]To know I’ll protect you
[01:32.42]No matter where you trek to
[01:35.34]I’ll come collect you
[01:38.20]I’ll come, yes, I’ll be
[01:41.18]Wherever you need me
[01:44.07]That’s a lifetime guarantee
[01:46.82]And you get all that for free
[01:50.93]I’m not gonna even know if it hurts
[01:55.02]When my heart stops beating
[01:57.01]I’ll be busy letting go
[01:59.19]Making sure that you won’t be needing me
[02:06.31]No, you won’t be needing me
[02:13.63]And no, we’re never gonna turn back time
[02:16.27]Can’t put the genie back, know I’ve tried
[02:19.45]One nation indivisible
[02:22.02]Is two nations in the miserable
[02:25.22]We’re more connected than we’ve ever been
[02:27.88]But more selective of the things we’re seeing
[02:30.89]We’re never gonna change the way we think
[02:33.60]If every argument’s a slam-ding
[02:36.93]I can’t expect you (I can’t expect you)
[02:39.86]To know I’ll protect you (to know I’ll protect you)
[02:42.86]No matter where you trek to (no matter where you trek to)
[02:45.69]I’ll come collect you (I will come collect you)
[02:48.82]I’ll come, yes, I will be (I’ll come, yes, I’ll be)
[02:51.58]Wherever you need me (wherever you need me)
[02:54.68]That’s a lifetime guarantee (that’s a lifetime guarantee)
[02:57.66]And you get all that for free
[02:59.53]From me, you’ll see
