"Chapters"

Candle eyes a smile as wide as a tennis court
Look through your fingers at the image right before
Candle eyes a smile as wide as a tennis court
Chase your words

So I can see you fall

Fall
Fall

Lost in worlds a love as kind as a chemical
Look the other way to see just what you've caused
Lost in worlds a love as kind as a chemical
Help the sane

So I can see through walls

Walls
Walls

I'm lost in an upside down world
Just hiding from sentimental verse

I'm tied into an occupation's curse
Just smiling, when smiling makes it worse

Summer's near and the streets are a blur again
Look at planes carve their name into the core
Summer's near and the streets are a blur again
Let them leave and press their tears into a pause

Act like animals to the sign of a criminal
Look at the foot prints leading past the law
Act like animals to the sign of a criminal
Sing for a get away

So I can make the call

Call
Call

Undesired, last to leave home from work
Eyes wide open, bones about to burst

Am I defining what's hurting?
A timid figure shouts timid words out loud

Just imagine if life was so simple
A single word from a phone could end the war
Just Imagine if life was so simple
Press a button on the machine

So I can hear you talk (Repeat)

Candle eyes a smile as wide as a tennis court
Look through your fingers at the image right before
