[00:00.00]Protest Singer - Kevin Devine
[00:02.63]I stopped today to see myself in subway glass
[00:11.39]
[00:14.45]And I was scared of the way I look now
[00:19.45]
[00:21.45]I knew the only thought my mind my eyes
[00:27.84]Please don't believe in me
[00:31.86]I don't want to let you down
[00:35.36]
[00:36.61]And I'm convinced it only rains in New York
[00:42.36]
[00:43.98]And I am surrounded by everything that really scares me
[00:53.36]A room full of empty people
[00:58.89]
[01:00.52]Regretting every time that they inhale
[01:05.78]
[01:07.92]And I want to write one perfect song
[01:14.30]To make you cry in your sleep
[01:18.58]
[01:21.78]Kind of like a soundtrack for your dreams
[01:27.45]To let you know I'm watching
[01:32.37]And making sure it's exact alright it'll be alright
[01:39.83]I guess I wanted to make you feel something
[01:48.30]
[01:49.11]I wanted to make you feel everything
[01:53.04]
[01:56.25]And you may call me a protest singer
[02:03.38]
[02:05.75]But I'm only protesting myself
[02:10.58]
[02:13.20]I don't believe in beautiful people
[02:16.90]And I don't believe in me
[02:21.78]I wonder what it's like to be in between
[02:30.48]
[02:34.10]Can you hear me
[02:37.66]
[02:41.95]Can you hear me
[02:43.88]You may call me a protest singer
[02:51.43]Can you hear me
[02:52.30]But I'm only protesting myself
[02:58.18]
[03:00.12]And you may call me a protest singer
[03:08.44]
[03:09.88]But I'm only protesting myself
