"Chin Up" lyrics

Close your eyes real tight
Underneath the city lights
And you can't hear the noise below your room
Take a real deep breath
And get those feelings off your chest
We'll work it out, we'll wake up in each others arms

Underneath it's never over
(Looking back over my shoulder)
Looking back over my shoulder
(Underneath it's never over)
We always said that we would meet again
When we were ten years older

I hadn't thought about her in a while
Until she showed up in a dream I had
Lying listless in a bed
With a string of broken hearts hanging from her fingers
And I said, "lets take a drive with a pack of Camel lights
Into the middle of nowhere and talk about our lives"

And hear me say...

Listen up: silence
Can't let it go, got to get it out
Listen up: silence
Can't let it go, got to get it out
Chin up, chin up till it touches the moon
Sad and forsaken one
It's you I'm talking to

You can't take it back
You can't take it back
This bullshit, I took it
And crushed it, and painted it black
I swallowed the match
It's burning at my insides

So...

Listen up: silence
Can't let it go, got to get it out
Listen up: silence
Can't let it go, got to get it out
Chin up, chin up till it touches the moon
Sad and forsaken one
It's you I'm talking to

Close your eyes real tight
Underneath the city lights
And you can't hear the noise below your room
Take a real deep breath
And get those feelings off your chest
We'll work it out, we'll wake up in each others arms

Underneath it's never over
(Looking back over my shoulder)
Looking back over my shoulder
(Underneath it's never over)
We always said that we would meet again
When we were ten years older

Listen up: silence
Can't let it go, got to get it out
Listen up: silence
Can't let it go, got to get it out
Listen up: silence
Can't let it go, got to get it out
Listen up: silence
Can't let it go, got to get it out
Chin up, chin up till it touches the moon
Sad and forsaken one, oooh
It's you I'm talking to
