[length: 25:35]
[00:18.19]Ooh-ooh, woman, tell me what you want and I’ll calm down
[00:27.46]Without bleeding out with a broken heart that you stabbed for an hour
[00:36.26]Woman, I was freaking out because I want you to know
[00:45.54]My beloved, you are the lover of my impossible soul
[00:54.21]Woman, too, promise me you’ll stay and put off all your woes
[01:03.57]I was wigging out, too much worry, I could not get you at all
[01:11.82]And you said what you want, you would laugh it off
[01:16.73]But I know you won’t go, not for real, at last
[01:23.34]Must you write it off for the impossible soul?
[01:30.04]And I was in a dream, I was gone away without you, but not too slow
[01:39.31]Lest I put it off, for I put it right for the impossible soul
[01:47.95]And all I couldn’t sing, I would say it all my life to you, if I could get you at all
[02:02.28]Don’t be a wreck, trying to be something that I wasn’t at all
[02:11.16]
[02:52.03]Seems I got it wrong, I was chasing after something that was gone
[03:01.46]To the black of night, now I know it’s not what I wanted at all
[03:09.95]And you said something like, “All you want is all the world for yourself”
[03:16.69]But all I want is the perfect love, though I know it’s small
[03:23.32]I want love for us all
[03:28.26]And all I couldn’t sing, I would say it all my life to you, if I could get you at all
[03:40.67]Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
[03:44.85]Trying to be something that I wasn’t at all
[03:50.99]
[03:56.06]Do you want to be afraid?
[04:04.10]Do you want to be afraid?
[04:11.77]For life in the cage, where courage’s mate runs deep in the wake
[04:23.33]For the scariest things are not half as enslaved
[04:32.10]Don’t be distracted, don’t be distracted
[04:40.17]Do you want to be alone?
[04:48.15]Do you want to be alone?
[04:55.52]For life isn’t stained of righteousness pain
[05:03.80]The seed and the hail
[05:07.46]All impossible flights, for an interesting light
[05:16.21]Don’t be distracted, don’t be distracted
[05:24.28]Do you want to love me more?
[05:32.31]Do you want to love me more?
[05:39.66]For love is the breath
[05:43.88]If water and wind is cursed by the same thing that nurtured its shame
[05:55.59]Is it worth all the work?
[06:00.07]Don’t be distracted, don’t be distracted
[06:08.20]Have you failed to feel delight? (No, I don’t want to feel pain!)
[06:16.23]Have you failed to feel delight? (No, I don’t want to feel pain!)
[06:23.71]Instead of the love, lived tired and lost
[06:31.71]Have you left it at last where it floundered its death with the language of ghosts?
[06:44.28]Don’t be distracted, don’t be distracted
[06:52.20]Do you want to be afraid? (No, I don’t want to feel pain!)
[07:00.35]Do you want to be afraid? (No, I don’t want to feel pain!)
[07:07.85]For life in the cage (For life in the cage!)
[07:11.65]Where courage’s mate (Where courage’s mate!)
[07:15.85]Runs deep in the waves (Runs deep in the waves!)
[07:19.78]For the scariest things (For the scariest things!)
[07:23.32]Are not half as enslaved (Are not half as enslaved!)
[07:28.12]Don’t be distracted, don’t be distracted now
[07:38.33]
[08:12.33]Don’t be distracted, don’t be distracted now
[08:22.81]
[08:32.08](No, don’t be distracted, no, don’t be distracted)
[08:41.03](No, don’t be distracted, no, don’t be distracted)
[08:47.10](No, don’t be distracted, no, don’t be distracted)

[09:40.85](No, don’t be distracted)
[09:49.09]No, don’t be distracted
[09:54.94]
[10:36.73]Stupid man in the window, I couldn’t be at rest
[10:44.77]All my delight, all that mattered, I couldn’t be at rest
[10:52.47]From what I liked, from what I gathered, I couldn’t be at rest
[11:00.95]Stupid man in the window, I couldn’t be at rest
[11:24.93]And don’t be shy in the window
[11:29.25]Come down and give your best
[11:33.14]Oh, delight in the window, I couldn’t be at rest
[11:41.00]Stupid man in the window, I couldn’t be at rest
[11:48.86]From what I liked, from what I gathered, I couldn’t give my best
[12:12.87]Oh, I know it wasn’t safe
[12:16.71]It wasn’t safe to breathe at all
[12:19.78]Oh, I know it wasn’t safe (It wasn’t safe, it wasn’t safe)
[12:23.75]It wasn’t safe to breathe at all (It wasn’t safe, it wasn’t safe)
[12:27.81]Oh, I know it wasn’t safe (It wasn’t safe, it wasn’t safe)
[12:31.83]It wasn’t safe to breathe at all (It wasn’t safe, it wasn’t safe)
[12:35.91]Oh, I know it wasn’t safe (It wasn’t safe, it wasn’t safe)
[12:39.77]It wasn’t safe to speak at all (It wasn’t safe, it wasn’t safe)
[12:53.51]
