[00:00.00]Torches Together - MeWithoutYou
[00:22.06]Why burn poor and lonely
[00:24.89]
[00:25.68]Under a bowl or under a lampshade
[00:28.46]
[00:30.19]Or on the shelf beside the bed
[00:32.15]Where at night you lay turning like a door on it's hinges
[00:35.77]
[00:36.56]First on your left side
[00:37.84]
[00:38.35]Then on your right side then your left side again
[00:42.41]
[00:50.86]Why burn poor and lonely
[00:53.88]
[00:54.45]Tell all the stones we're gonna make a building
[00:57.65]We'll cut into shape and set into place
[01:00.97]Or if you'd rather be a window
[01:03.15]I'll gladly be the frame
[01:05.04]Reflecting any kind of words
[01:06.91]We'll let in all the blame
[01:08.40]
[01:09.64]And ruin our reputation all the same
[01:12.03]So never mind our plan making
[01:13.91]
[01:14.57]We'll start living
[01:15.91]
[01:16.51]Anyway aren't you unbearably sad
[01:18.93]
[01:19.57]Then why burn so poor and lonely
[01:22.97]
[01:23.63]We'll be like torches
[01:25.33]We'll be like torches
[01:26.78]
[01:27.31]We'll be like torches no
[01:30.58]We'll be torches together
[01:32.71]Torches together
[01:34.64]We'll be like torches
[01:36.41]We'll be like torches
[01:37.93]With whatever respect our tattered dignity demands
[01:42.07]Torches together hand in hand
[01:44.96]
[01:57.92]Why pluck one string
[01:59.50]
[02:01.77]What good is just one note
[02:03.71]
[02:04.56]Oh one string sounds fine I guess
[02:07.37]
[02:08.01]We we're once 'One Notes'
[02:10.43]We were lonely wheat quietly ground into grain
[02:14.49]
[02:15.95]What light and momentary pain
[02:18.23]So why this safe distance this curious look
[02:21.94]Why tear out single pages
[02:23.44]When you can throw away the book
[02:25.37]
[02:26.00]Why pluck one string when you can strum the guitar
[02:29.80]Strum the guitar
[02:31.49]Strum the guitar
[02:33.40]Strum the guitar
[02:34.57]With no beginning with no ending
[02:37.01]Take down a guitar and strum the guitar
[02:40.73]Strum the guitar
[02:41.88]If you're afraid
[02:43.29]And I'm afraid and everyone's afraid
[02:46.30]And everyone knows it
[02:47.43]But we don't have to be afraid anymore
[02:50.74]
[03:05.78]You played the flute but no one was dancing
[03:09.27]You sang a sad song and none of us cried
[03:13.23]You played the flute but no one was dancing
[03:16.51]You sang a sad song and none of us cried
[03:20.44]You played the flute but no one was dancing
[03:23.79]You sang a sad song and none of us cried
[03:27.75]You played the flute but no one was dancing
[03:31.07]You sang a sad song
[03:32.81]You sang such a sad song
