[Verse 1]
Bb
On the streets you look again
C
At the places you have been
G
Or the moments that you thought
D
Where am I going
Bb
Though the walls are like the dead
C
They reflect the things you've said
G D
And the echoes in your head continue showing
C
Near the castles you can build
Am
Out of dreams you half fulfilled
E Em
Won't keep out all of the ill wind that is blowing
C
And you look still for a trace
Fmaj7
Of an opening in a place
Fmaj7 C
Where you find the life that you were used to knowing
[Verse 2]
Bb
You can walk out in the night
C
And be sure that its alright
G D
To exaggerate the world that's only being
Bb
You can watch Regina dance
C
Through the crystal panes of glass
G D
Yet you know that there's so much that she's not seeing
C
Still you hold one precious thought
Am
After all this time you've sought
E Em
That she might be just protecting what she longs for
C
And her eyes are veiled with black
Fmaj7
Cause she plays she can look back
Fmaj7 C
At the love she wanted so but says is no more
[Verse 3]
Bb
The lights go on, commence the cold
C
As your senses will be sold
G D
To the parrot watchers mimicing no reasons
Bb
To pretend that what they are
C
From the fact completely far
G D
While the truth may be betrayal, lies and treason
C
Build their towers in the sand
Am
Down the roads at their command
E Em
While the kingdom is the innocence they're stealing
C
And infection easily spreads
Fmaj7
To the searching, twisted heads
Fmaj7 C
As they team up to tear down each others feeling
