Verse :

Cm
Silhouettes against the shade
Cm
Tire tracks in the street
Cm
What mistakes are being made
Cm
Whose name is on the sheet

Cm
Secret words in darkened rooms
Cm
Mirrors with a view
Cm
Some will only see themselves
Cm
Some will see right through

F               Cm

Verse :

Cm
Broken lives along the wall
Cm
Reasons now unknown
Cm
Who'll be left to make the call

When the lid is blown

Weary faces on the screen

Teardrops on the grass
Cm
Dreaming of might have been
Cm
Wishing for the past

Verse :

Cm
There are some who toe the line
Cm
Some who fear its loss
Cm
Some who see the tell-tale signs
Cm
And those who know the cost

Cm
There's nothing for the empty heart
Cm
The mind begins to drift
Cm
Hoping for a brave new start
Cm
Out there beyond the mist
