Lyrics
THINGS ARE NOT WHAT THEY SEEM
SEE THE LIGHT POUR THROUGH THE WINDOW.IN THE SKY-I WATCH THE SHADOWS RUN FOR COVER AS ANOTHER DAY DIES.
SOMETIMES THE WORLD SEEMS LIKE A SAFE PLACE-TO TRY OUR NEW SCHEEMS IFEEL LIKE IM LIVING IN A DREAM
THINGS ARE NOT WHAT THEY SEEM NOT ALWAYS WATER IN A STREAM OR LIGHT FROM A BEAM NO THERE NOT WHAT THEY SEEM
THE YEARS GO ROLLING BY ME NO STOPPING TIME- SOMETIMES IT,S A STRUGGLE KNOWING YOUR OWN MIND.
BUT THAT DON,T GET ME DOWN NOW-A THOUGHT IS JUST A SEED
I KNOW I,LL FIND MY WAY BUT IT HURTS TO WATCH YOU BLEED
CHORAS
CLOSE MY EYES SO I CAN SEE-CLOSE MY EARS SO I CAN HEAR-IF I GIVE LOVE I WILL RECEIVE-THAT,S WHAT I BELIEVE
SEEN THE LIGHT POUR THROUGH THE WINDOW-IN MY SOUL-WATCH THE SHADOWS RUN FOR COVER I,M EMBRACING GETTING OLD
CHORAS
