[00:00.00]Be Safe (Explicit) - The Cribs
[00:12.84]One of those f**king awful black days when nothing is pleasing
[00:15.03]
[00:16.44]And everything that happens is an excuse for anger
[00:18.42]
[00:19.05]An outlet for emotions stockpiled
[00:20.61]
[00:21.68]An arsenal an armor
[00:23.11]
[00:24.30]These are the days when I hate the world
[00:26.20]
[00:26.77]Hate the richhate the happy hate the complacent
[00:30.03]
[00:30.91]The tv watchers beer drinkers the satisfied ones
[00:33.47]
[00:34.79]Because I know I can be all those little hateful things
[00:37.63]And then I hate myself for realizing that
[00:39.63]
[00:41.00]There is no preventative directive or safe approach for living
[00:44.82]We each know our own faith
[00:47.17]We know from our youth how to be treated
[00:48.74]And how we'll be received and how we shall end
[00:51.55]These things don't change
[00:52.74]
[00:53.49]You can change your clothes change your hairstyle
[00:56.36]Your friends cities continents
[00:57.67]
[00:58.24]But sooner or later your old self will always catch up
[01:01.11]Always it waits in the wings
[01:02.98]My need is slow but don't stick
[01:04.30]Like
[01:04.67]Like the rain on the windshield
[01:06.32]
[01:07.32]One of those rainy day car rides
[01:09.57]My head imploded
[01:10.57]The atmosphere in this car a mirror of my skull
[01:13.69]
[01:14.25]Wet damp windows dripping and misted with cold
[01:18.72]Walls of gray
[01:19.72]
[01:20.41]Nothing good on the radio
[01:22.32]Not a thought in my head
[01:24.06]I know a place we can go where you'll fall in love so hard that you'll wish you were dead
[01:33.05]
[01:34.30]Let's take life and slow it down incredibly slow (I know a place we can go)
[01:37.05]Frame by frame (when you'll fall in )
[01:38.46]
[01:39.02]Like two minutes that take ten years to live out (love so hard that)
[01:43.14]Yeah let's do that (you'll wish you were dead)
[01:45.60]
[01:47.41]Telephone poles like praying mantis against the sky
[01:50.41]Metal arms outstretched
[01:51.60]
[01:52.47]So much land traveled so little sense made of it
[01:55.97]It doesn't mean a thing all this land laying out behind us
[01:59.22]I'd like to take off into these woods and get good and lost for a while
[02:03.16]I'm disgusted with petty concerns - parking tickets breakfast specials
[02:07.03]
[02:07.91]Does someone just have to carry this weight
[02:09.68]
[02:13.98]Abstract topography

[02:34.27]
[02:40.08]The light within me shines like a diamond mine
[02:42.46]
[02:43.02]Like an unarmed walrus
[02:44.46]Like a dead man face down on the highway
[02:47.08]Like a snake eating its own tail
[02:49.14]A steam turbine
[02:50.33]Frog pond
[02:51.27]Too-full closet burst open in disarray

[03:16.34]You're a dark hallway
[03:17.22]
[03:17.84]I hear your stairs creak
[03:19.16]
[03:20.22]I can fix my mind on your yes and your no
[03:23.34]
[03:24.21]I'll feel your face today in the sparkling canal
[03:27.34]All red yellow blue-green brilliance and silver Dutch reflection
[03:31.03]
[03:31.97]Racing thoughts
[03:32.97]Racing thoughts all too real
[03:34.71]You're moving so fast now I can't hold your image
[03:37.16]
[03:37.97]This image I have of your face by the window
[03:40.34]Me standing beside you
[03:41.72]Arm on your shoulder
[03:42.97]A catalog of images flashing glimpses
[03:45.47]Then dawn again
[03:46.22]
[03:46.84]Untethered to this post you've sunk in me
[03:49.00]Every clear afternoon now I'll think of you up in the air
[03:52.66]Twisting your heel and your knees up around me
[03:55.16]My face in your hair
[03:56.85]You scream so well
[03:57.78]
[03:58.41]Your smile so loud
[03:59.41]
[03:59.97]Still rings in my ears

[04:54.74]She's slow and careful
[04:55.92]Paints her face green mask-like
[04:57.30]
[04:58.05]Like Matisse
[04:58.92]Portrait with Green Stripe
[05:00.49]Long shot through apartment window
[05:02.98]
[05:03.67]A monologue on top but no girl in shot
