[03:31.99] It's hard to love [03:35.68] There's so much to hate [03:39.24] Hanging on to hope [03:42.96] When there is no hope to speak of [03:46.75] And the wounded skies above [03:51.25] Say it's much too late [03:56.30] So maybe we should all be praying for time [04:01.75] [04:05.17] To-do-do [04:10.28] [04:13.92] Oh-oh, yeah [04:14.87]
