Paint what you know, not what you see

Hope blinds reason, thankfully

Know how it is when something fits

There's just a question of being it

I'd do anything to see you smile again

And I'd go anywhere so as not to feel your pain

I wanna live and the fear is all gone

I wanna protect and I know what it's from

I wasn't made for secrets like these

Chinese whispers, memories

Nothing is done without effect

There's nothing done that won't reflect

Pull one brick from an endless wall

Would it drown us all?

'Cause I'd do anything to see you smile again

And I'd go anywhere so as not to feel your pain

'Cause I wanna live where the fear is all gone

I wanna protect, and I know what it's from

I wasn't made for secrets like these

Chinese whispers and memories

You just need love like you say you do

And there may never be a time when it won't get through

Yeah, you know how it is when something fits

Now there's just a question of being it

And I'd do anything to see you smile again

But I'd go anywhere so as not to feel your pain

'Cause I wanna live and the fear is all gone

I wanna protect, and I know what it's from

Yeah I wasn't made for secrets like these

Chinese whispers, memories

Nothing is done without effect

There's nothing done that won't reflect

If I pull one brick from an endless wall

Would it drown us all?
