Lyrics written by Chris Davis.
*Lyrics: Yeah, there is a place where I like to go, when I need something to show for it, I'm learning to swim, Can you hear the words? No, you can't hear. Open your heart and then unlock the mind, closing your eyes turn the key to right, now hold it tight, Can you see the writing on the walls of my cell? Chaperone, these words are not my own, Can you read the lining on the walls of my heart, Chaperone, this world is not my home, Let them hear the words, Oh, can you hear? Closing the door, for this night is not mine, closing your eyes turn the key to the right, now hold it tight, Can you see the writing on the walls of my cell? Chaperone, these words are not my own, Can you read the lining on the walls of my heart? Chaperone, this world is not my home, Can you hear the words that are coming out of your mouth? Can you see the writing on the walls of my cell? Chaperone, these words are not my own, Can you read the lining on the walls of my heart? Chaperone, this world is not my home.
*Synopsis: No matter what your belief system is everyone has that sense of being watched over, or for that matter being watched. In times of trials and in times of greatness there is the inner-voice that drives us towards our fate. Whether or not you personally have the support system you need to thrive determines alot sometimes. It is in this nature that I have found my voice. No one is a "mind reader" which means you have to learn to communicate for yourself and more importantly learn to be a good listener. This song, in essence, is my way of speaking to my Higher Power and to those around me, stating the following: I don't know what the hell I am doing sometimes, show me the way and teach me to own my actions and words. Also, to learn to not worry about others actions and opinions as much.
