Chandler

Chandler is ten years old He couldn't thrive in a life With a silver spoon He's got a lump in his throat From all the dour thoughts Everyone's waiting Wanting to change him Everyone's out of time Calm before the storm They wouldn't see The war inside his mind There's no such thing As being too sensitive Laura is twenty years old Lives in a cardboard universe She's lining things up in a row So she controls it Everyone's waiting Wanting to change her Everyone's out of time Calm before the storm They wouldn't know The walls she has to climb There's no such thing As being too sensitive Chandler is forty years old Still hears the quiet undertones Neighbors are calling him the ghost Talk like they know him Everyone's waiting Wanting to change him Everyone's out of time Calm before the storm The wouldn't see the war he has to fight There's no such thing As being too sensitive
