[00:33.14]Sisyphus peered into the mist
[00:35.78]A stone's throw from the precipice, paused
[00:39.89]Did he jump or did he fall as he gazed into the maw of the morning mist?
[00:44.84]Did he raise both fists and say, "to hell with this and just let the rock roll"?
[00:52.67]Let it roll, let it crash down low
[00:57.67]There's a house down there but I lost it long ago
[01:04.48]Let it roll, let it crash down low
[01:09.20]See my house down there but I lost it long ago
[01:14.51]
[01:31.09]Well, I let the rock roll on down to the town below
[01:36.43]We had a house down there but I lost it long ago
[01:40.76]Lost it long ago
[01:43.81]Na-na-na-na-na-na-na
[01:48.98]Na-na-na-na-na-na
[01:54.95]I'm letting it roll away
[01:58.06]It's got nothing to do with fate
[02:01.46]And everything to do with you
[02:07.26]I'd rather fail like a mortal than flail like a god on a lightning rod
[02:11.28]History forgets the moderates
[02:13.46]
[02:18.68]For those who sit
[02:19.50]Recalcitrant and taciturn
[02:21.61]You know I'd rather turn and burn than scale this edifice, yeah
[02:25.21]
[02:30.16]Where's my accomplice?
[02:31.65]So take my hand, we'll do more than stand
[02:34.05]Take my hand, we'll claim this land
[02:36.29]Take my hand, and we'll let the rock roll
[02:42.84]Let it roll, let it crash down low
[02:47.65]There's a house down there but I lost it long ago
[02:54.21]Let it roll, let it crash down low
[02:59.16]See my house down there but I lost it long ago
[03:03.50]Lost it long ago
[03:06.03]Na-na-na-na-na-na-na
[03:11.84]Na-na-na-na-na-na
[03:17.50]I'm letting it roll away
[03:20.69]It's got nothing to do with fate
[03:24.12]And everything to do with–
