PIANO WOMAN 04:05
It's simple: I gave you the money. Let me watch her play, and learn a thing or two. I gave you the money. Her hands go down and back. My strings shake like a coward. Scared. It's simple: I gave you the money to see, gave you the money to see her play that piano.

You are behind a wall of animals tying your shoes in the blackness. I am in front of the wall of animals tying my shoes in the brightness. This is the world. Trees are blooming into bright lightbulbs, and then the lightbulbs fall and crash. The animals are breaking into fewer animals. And our hands are pinecones.

杭州 04:26
I've no time for things that I like. I've got work. I've got class, soon. This busy life gets so contrived, yet I stuck it to my soul. There's no time for things I do. Too much all in one soul. This busy life gets so contrived, yet I stuck it to my soul. Stuck it to my soul. Oh how it sticks to me. oh. ew.

E X T E N D 02:44
You won't give it to me and I asked so nicely. But you won't give it to me. You won't. Extend my time here. Extend my time here. Wake up. Wake up. Wake up. Wake up. They're not gonna let me extend. They're not gonna, they're not gonna let me extend my stay.

NO RIGHTS 02:53
You told your folks and they condemned you. Calm down like a ton of bricks. so, they have no rights. We have no rights. Locked inside a dirty cage, kick the gravel down to where an answer can be found. You have no rights. They have no rights. We have no rights. We have no rights here.

HEY 01:22
HEY! I think you're pretty alright. So, I guess it's time to say goodnight. Although I'm going away, I'll be here tomorrow. Singing a song of yesterday, the one you'll like when I play saying HEY! I think you're pretty cool. So, let's cut class together. And enjoy this Hong Kong weather. You like it or not? really? maybe? Alright, just maybe we can have a try? What are we waiting for? a try? That's what I'm waiting for.

TRAIN TICKET 03:25
You've got a train ticket. Just go with it to a land of grass and dirt, and no words. Oh, I don't have a train ticket. I can't board the train to a land of grass and dirt. Oh, but it ain't ever gonna die. No, it ain't ever gonna die. This land of grass and dirt, and no words. Oh, but it ain't ever gonna die. No, it ain't ever gonna die. This land of grass and dirt, and no words.

I set myself on fire. It burned me out. I'm so tired. But I can't go to my bed. So I guess I can burn out with you. Until there's a knock at the door that I won't answer. Just shut my mouth and hide under covers of love. I set myself on fire. It burned me out.
