D
A corner office was his dream
More like a prison now it seems
G
Somewhere on the corporate climb
He left his warrior behind
D
Now hes just a worker at a daily grind
Steals his years and numbs his mind
GEm
His strength is fading, his dreams are blind
This is not the life he had in mind
D
She lies awake cause hes up all night
Staring at a screen that tells him lies
G
That the grass is greener on the other side
D
So shes at the gym fighting off the years
To be young again and calm her fears
G
That shell never be enough for him
Em
Just as a young man catches her eye
D
Now they're trapped in their own worlds, in their own wars
D7M/C#D
With their cell phones and the closed doors
GD7M/C#D
It's funny how quiet and peaceful that it seems
G
But they're all alone together
Em
In the house of their dreams
D
Little sister, shes a sixteen-year-old princess
Lost somewhere between the swing set
G
And her brand new crushs chariot awaits
D
And big brothers rooms glowing with trophies that shout his name
G
But he'd trade all his high school fame
Em
For some backyard catch with his hero again
GD
Now they're trapped in their own worlds, in their own wars
D7M/C#D
With their cell phones and the closed doors
GD7M/C#D
It's funny how quiet and peaceful that it seems
G
But they're all alone together
Em
In the house of their dreams
D
So now they're all dressed up in sunday best
Sit up straight just like the rest
GD
And they sing the songs of peace and rest that Jesus freely gives
And then their kids look up as daddy stands
And he takes his bride with trembling hands
G
Brother kneels at his fathers side as princess looks in the mothers eyes
Em
Their tears tear down the walls as daddy prays
GD
Now they're trapped in their own worlds, in their own wars
D7M/C#D
With their cell phones and the closed doors
GD7M/C#D
It's funny how quiet and peaceful that it seems
G
But they're all alone together
Em
In the house of their dreams
