[00:00:00] Staring Down The Barrel Of The Middle Distance (Live) - R.E.M.

[00:00:03] Written by：Jacknife Lee/R.E.M.

[00:00:07] Now the hope for the future

[00:00:08] Took a pounding in the parking lot

[00:00:14] And the answer for today

[00:00:17] Is all I got

[00:00:22] When your name is called

[00:00:24] The lights went down the

[00:00:26] Time is the essence

[00:00:27] Excuse me and I'm

[00:00:29] Blinking at the vanishing point of what I thought

[00:00:37] Staring down the barrel of the middle distance

[00:00:41] For God knows I tried

[00:00:45] I close my eyes

[00:00:48] I close my eyes

[00:00:52] I close my eyes

[00:01:06] I greet despair to a standard prayer

[00:01:10] If you call for the future

[00:01:12] I don't care

[00:01:14] And I turn you round to face me here aha

[00:01:21] There's a compass raised with familiar tone

[00:01:25] With a voice

[00:01:26] That needles me to the bone

[00:01:29] Staring down the barrel of the middle distance

[00:01:33] God knows I tried

[00:01:37] I close my eyes

[00:01:41] I close my eyes

[00:01:44] I close my eyes

[00:01:58] Whose position shifts

[00:02:00] 'Cause it's been effect

[00:02:02] 'Cause if you can't hit play

[00:02:04] 'Cause the button sticks here

[00:02:06] Ignorance is bliss

[00:02:09] I can't say

[00:02:13] There's a compass raised with familiar tone

[00:02:17] With a voice

[00:02:18] That needles you to the bone

[00:02:21] You're left

[00:02:22] With chaos static and delay

[00:02:29] Staring down the barrel of the middle distance

[00:02:36] Staring down the barrel of the middle distance

[00:02:40] For God knows I tried

[00:02:44] I close my eyes

[00:02:48] I close my eyes

[00:02:51] I close my eyes

[00:02:58] Staring down the barrel of the middle distance

[00:03:03] God knows I tried

[00:03:06] I close my eyes
