Echoes

       Bb
On the streets you look again
       C
At the places you have been
       G                                    D
Or the moments that you thought, where am I going
           Bb
Though the walls are like the dead
     C
They reflect the things you've said
        G                            D
And the echoes in your head continue showing
         C
Here the castles you can build
       Am
Out of dreams you half fullfilled
           Em
Won't keep out all of the ill wind that is blowing
           C
And you'll look still for a trace
      F7M
Of an opening in a place
                                              C
Where you find the life that you were used to knowing

( C  Bb  C )

        Bb
You can walk out in the night
       C
And be sure that it's all right
   G                                D
To exaggerate the world that's only being
        Bb
You can watch Regina dance
            C
Through the crystal panes of glass
        G                                        D
Yet you know that there's so much that she's not seeing
           C
Still, you hold one precious thought
      Am
After all this time you've sought
         Em
That she might be just protecting what she longs for
        C
And her eyes are veiled with black
           F7M
'Cause she plays she can look back
                                       C
At the love she wanted so, but says is no more

              B
The lights go on, commence the cold
        C#
As your senses will be sold
       G#                           D#
To the parrot watchers mimicking no reasons
   B
To pretend that what they are
         C#
From the fact completely far
          G#                              D#
While the truth may be betrayal, lies and treason
            C#
Build their towers in the sand
         A#m
Down the roads of their command
         Fm
When the kingdom is the innocence they're stealing
    C#
And infection easily spreads
            F#7M
Through the searching, twisted heads
                                          C#
As they team up to tear down each others' feeling
