1
What happened here
2
The butterfly has lost its wings
3
The air's too thick to breathe
4
And there's something in the drinking water
5
The sun comes up
6
The sun comes up and you're alone
7
Your sense of purpose come undone
8
The traffic tails back to the maze on 101
9
And the news from the sky
10
Is looking better for today
11
In every single way
12
But not for you

15
It's not safe
16
All the yellow birds are sleeping
17
Cause the air's not fit for breathing
18
It's not safe
19
Why can't we be
20
Without beginning, without end
21
Why can't we be

24
And if I stop
25
And talk with you awhile
26
I'm overwhelmed by the scale
27
Of everything you feel
28
The lonely inner state emergency
29
I want to feel
30
Until my heart can take no more
31
And there's nothing in this world I wouldn't give
32
I want to break
33
The indifference of the days
34
I want a conscience that will keep me wide awake
35
I won't be disappointed
36
I won't be disappointed
37
I won't be
38
I saw a face
39
It was a face I didn't know
40
Her sadness told me everything about my own
41
Can't let it be
42
When least expected there she is
43
Gone the time and space that separates us
44
And I'm not safe
45
I think I need a second skin
46
No I'm not safe

49
I want to travel by night
50
Across the steppes and over seas
51
I want to understand the cost
52
Of everything that's lost
53
I want to pronounce all their names correctly

56
I won't be disappointed
57
I won't be
58
She doesn't laugh
59
We've gone from comedy to commerce
60
And she doesn't feel the ground she walks upon
61
I turn away
62
And I'm not sleeping well at night
63
And while I know this isn't right
64
What can you do
65
I won't be disappointed
66
I won't be disappointed
67
I won't be
