D D
You and me of the 10,000 wars
D D G
Dividing life into factions of pleasures and chores
G D D
A bed to be made and a bed to lie in
G Asus9 A D D
A hand in the darker side, and our sights set on Zion
The heart of a skeptic and the mind of a child
Put my life in a box, and let my imagination run wild
Pour the cement for my feet
The heart and the mind on a parallel course, never the two shall meet
G G C G D D
And oh, the dissatisfied with the satisfied
G G C G D D/E D/F# D/A
Everybody loves a melodrama, and the scandal of a lie
G Asus4 A D D
Still you held your arms open for the prodigal daughter
G A Asus4 D D
I see my eyes in your eyes through my eyes, still waters
Try making one and one make one
Twist the shapes until everything comes undone
Watch the wizard behind the curtain
The larger than life and the power of seeming certain
The evil ego and the vice of pride
Is there ever anything else that makes us take our different sides?
I wanted everything to feed me
About as full as I got was of myself, and the upper echelons of mediocrity
And oh, the dissatisfied with the satisfied
Everybody loves a melodrama, and the scandal of a lie
Still you held your arms open for the prodigal daughter
G A Asus4 D D
I see my eyes in your eyes through my eyes, still waters
D D
Still waters
After the battles and we're still around
Everything once up in the air has settled down
Sweep the ashes, let the silence find us
A moment of peace is worth every war behind us
D D D D D4
You and me of the 10,000 wars
