Shadows Like Statues

lights out and my seat back as far as it will go

casting shadows like statues

i'm right outside your window

there's no such thing as second chances

there's no such thing don't bother to explain

you're so beautiful did you hear a word i said

you're so beautiful i guess this is what i get

[Chorus]

we trust and believe so easily in words they speak

we seek security in one another but there's no way to cover this

and these tragic nights and afternoons wreak disaster

and i can still feel you as if you were in the room

where does our story end where does it start

i buried you along with my heart

entertain me and tell me "it didn't mean anything"

it's vengous worth my tolerance and i could be careless

but i promise you'll feel everything

you're so beautiful did you hear a word i said (don't bother to explain)

you're so beautiful i guess this is what i get (don't bother to explain)

[Chorus]

i guess this is what i get

(i know i know i know i know i know i know i know)

(2x)

[Chorus]

did you hear a word i said (2x) [background screaming]
