lyrics

all we asked was ten more minutes
while the city spent its weekend
it all was planned but unexpected
youth goes quickly when undefended
i'll have a single room where it's cool and dim and quiet
i will sleep and hope that the neighbors stop their fighting
when it's too much work just to stay awake
we can close ourselves inside to keep the traffic silent
we can dance to this, we can turn it off
only look outside to find the parade

is this all that we'll remember:
birthday parties, christmas mornings
there's so much more that seems to happen
without our knowledge, without our process
don't take hold...
