Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Stray from the outside
Make a wish and then run and hide
You keep beating me all the time
At this chess game you call life
I've seen this move about a thousand times
It's an L-shaped trick, a diagonal line
You just pucker up and prepare yourself to die
[Verse 2]
That silent moon keeps me up at night
While the movie in black and white
Brings me back to a different time
Where true romance was a blissful state of mind
No sounds, no lines, gray polished eyes
All the lights go down and the stars start to align
[Chorus]
How could you find your way out of this world view?
Suffice to find another just to feel a sense of depth
Redefine the words and colors
Keep on wishing it was summer
I'll find a way to paint it black
Ditch the whole damn thing, then maybe call you back
Do I have to?
[Chorus]
How could you find your way out of this world view?
Suffice to find another just to feel a sense of depth
Redefine the words and colors
Keep on wishing it was summer
I'll find a way to paint it black
Ditch the whole damn thing, then maybe call you back
Do I have to?
