I think I know what you mean but watch what you say
 C#m                         F#m      G#m          E

 C#m                        F#m            G#m          E
Your mind would wander and search for its place in the night
 C#m                      F#m         G#m       E
Your body followed this feeling like following light

 C#m                     F#m                 G#m          E
And then it gave your activities, meaning and let you be loud
 
F#m                 G#m
You're sad but you smile
A               E
It not in your eyes
F#m                  G#m
Your eyeballs won't change
          A                  Open E
It's the muscles around your eyes

Or do my thoughts just live

As boats to the dock?

Just like when music was born and detached from your heart
C#m                      F#m          G#m       E
Is your free time to free minds or for falling apart?
