World Citizen (I Won't Be Disappointed) - David Sylvian[00:00:00]
What happened here [00:00:01]
The butterfly has lost its wings[00:00:04]
The air's too thick to breathe[00:00:08]
And there's something in the drinking water [00:00:11]
The sun comes up[00:00:22]
The sun comes up and you're alone[00:00:25]
Your sense of purpose come undone[00:00:29]
The traffic tails back to the maze on 101[00:00:32]
And the news from the sky[00:00:43]
Is looking better for today[00:00:47]
In every single way[00:00:51]
But not for you[00:00:54]
World citizen[00:00:58]
World citizen[00:01:05]
It's not safe[00:01:12]
All the yellow birds are sleeping[00:01:15]
Cos the air's not fit for breathing[00:01:19]
It's not safe[00:01:22]
Why can't we be[00:01:26]
Without beginning without end [00:01:29]
Why can't we be [00:01:33]
World citizen[00:01:41]
World citizen[00:01:47]
And if I stop[00:01:54]
And talk with you awhile[00:01:59]
I'm overwhelmed by the scale[00:02:01]
Of everything you feel[00:02:06]
The lonely inner state emergency[00:02:09]
I want to feel[00:02:19]
Until my heart can take no more[00:02:23]
And there's nothing in this world I wouldn't give[00:02:26]
I want to break[00:02:33]
The indifference of the days[00:02:37]
I want a conscience that will keep me wide awake[00:02:40]
I won't be disappointed[00:02:48]
I won't be disappointed[00:02:55]
I won't be [00:03:02]
I saw a face[00:03:11]
It was a face I didn't know[00:03:14]
Her sadness told me everything about my own[00:03:17]
Can't let it be[00:03:25]
When least expected there she is[00:03:28]
Gone the time and space that separates us[00:03:32]
And I'm not safe[00:03:39]
I think I need a second skin[00:03:43]
No I'm not safe[00:03:46]
World citizen[00:03:54]
World citizen[00:04:01]
I want to travel by night[00:04:08]
Across the steppes and over seas[00:04:11]
I want to understand the cost[00:04:15]
Of everything that's lost[00:04:19]
I want to pronounce all their names correctly[00:04:22]
World citizen[00:04:29]
World citizen[00:04:36]
I won't be disappointed[00:04:43]
I won't be [00:04:50]
She doesn't laugh[00:04:57]
We've gone from comedy to commerce[00:05:01]
And she doesn't feel the ground she walks upon[00:05:04]
I turn away[00:05:12]
And I'm not sleeping well at night[00:05:15]
And while I know this isn't right[00:05:19]
What can you do[00:05:22]
