[00:18.540]My darling my dear
[00:21.040]I tell you what is wrong
[00:23.420]
[00:25.420]I went to the mountain
[00:27.730]But the mountain top was gone
[00:30.730]
[00:32.480]Remember those trees
[00:34.230]
[00:35.040]Where as kids we dreamed
[00:37.300]
[00:39.040]They tore em down years ago
[00:41.730]And built a factory
[00:44.100]
[00:46.230]And when that plant closed
[00:48.040]
[00:48.730]The workers all left town
[00:50.850]
[00:52.850]I read in the paper that
[00:55.480]Some kids were killed
[00:56.260]When it burnt down
[00:57.770]
[00:59.640]Now I stare at that field
[01:02.270]Like circle in the earth
[01:04.650]
[01:06.900]And nothing’ll grow now
[01:08.700]That’s not soil
[01:10.140]It’s just dirt
[01:11.760]And I cant stand it
[01:14.700]What’s the use in making something new
[01:20.070]
[01:20.570]If all that made us must be ruined
[01:25.460]I cant demand it
[01:28.460]I got nothing but
[01:30.590]Mounting debt and fear
[01:33.770]
[01:34.270]I scratch my head wondering
[01:37.020]How we got here

[02:18.740]
