Everything in a world where clocks run forward
Rivers run to the sea
Pointed to what we'd been giving
By the fact that we'd been living
Between mountain number one and the city
Everything they said is coming true
I wish you were here to see
Our concern is unaffected
We're concerned that you're connected
Just through satellite technology, gee
And out there
Where you're foolin' around if you're free
There's no work to be found
And your hair falling into your mouth
And your arms are open wide
Everything in a world where clocks run slowly
Rivers don't know the sea
Points you to what keeps you nodding
And away from not a lot
And not a lot is really nothing to see
Everything they said is coming true
We're kicking it off on the one
But, my god, it makes me shiver
You're still living by the river
When baby we were born to run
And out there
Where you're foolin' around and you're free
There's no work to be found
And your hair falling into your mouth
And your arms are open wide
And the light has gone dull in your eyes at 17
And your friends are your life
Come with me
Just don't want you to die where the river gets you high
♪
And out there
Where you're toolin' around if you're free
There's no works to be found
And your hair falling into your mouth
And your arms are open wide
And the light has gone out in your eyes at 23
And your friends are your ride
Come with me
Just don't want you to die where the river gets you high
Oh yeah yeah, oh yeah yeah, oh yeah yeah, oh yeah yeah
Oh yeah yeah, oh yeah yeah, oh yeah yeah
Oh yeah yeah, oh yeah yeah, oh yeah yeah, oh yeah yeah
Oh yeah yeah, oh yeah yeah, oh yeah yeah
