[00:27.86] If you've been kicked in or abused [00:30.13] Or mistreated or misused [00:33.05] You were told there was nowhere to go but up for you [00:36.63] If you've been hurt or you've been betrayed [00:38.73] Or you've been fucked or you've displaced [00:41.95] You were told it was probably your fault anyway [00:45.50] But when your Hustler subscription and your Xanax prescriptions [00:50.81] Make you feel lonelier instead [00:55.42] You don't want to hear about all those starving children [00:59.43] You don't want to be told it's all in your head [01:02.93] 'Cause if it's all in your head, that's terrible [01:12.70] I saw a junkie lying in a puddle of his own blood last week [01:17.28] I saw a cyclist get hit by a car [01:21.77] I saw a homeless guy chug a bottle of mouthwash on Christmas Eve [01:26.35] No, you can never fall too far [01:30.61] You can buy a salad glove, you can buy an iPod [01:34.13] And you can sell that shit to Bookman's [01:36.34] When your wife dies and you lose your job [01:39.36] You can hope it gets better [01:40.10] You can follow your dreams [01:42.88] But hope is for presidents [01:45.00] And dreams are for people who are sleeping [01:50.91] [02:23.09] My friend Erin says it best [02:24.17] "We're all two or three bad decisions away [02:27.15] From becoming the ones that we fear and pity" [02:30.10] And Toni says it's important to bear some witness when you can [02:35.80] And that's not hard to do in the city that I live in [02:40.04] You don't have it any better, you don't have it any worse [02:44.11] You're an irreplaceable human soul [02:47.36] With your own understanding of what it means to suffer [02:55.19] And that's a huge bummer!
