Inside my mind there is a man
|
He's always bragging about his plans
|
He says he's never gonna leave
|
(I'm never gonna leave you alone)
|
|
Despite your efforts to be free
|
Your mind and always you will be
|
At the end of the rope always singing
|
(Woe is me)
|
|
And I know I have to but I don't know how
|
(Go! Go! Go! Go!)
|
And I know that he knows I can do without
|
(Go! Go! Go! Go!)
|
And he knows that I need it so bad
|
Then I realize it's clear that he knows that
|
That in the end, he'll never know what hides inside my head
|
|
I don't want to seem ungrateful
|
I don't want to seem like I don't need anyone's help
|
To get me through the rainy days
|
To push through the haze
|
So I can get on my feet
|
And I can stand up and do what it takes
|
|
You heard his story now hear mine
|
(I live inside a coward's mind)
|
Where every dream I dream gets shot down
|
(All of the time)
|
|
If I don't jump into the fray
|
(He bums around and wastes our days)
|
He's like an anchor being tied to me
|
(Tied around my waist)
|
|
And you know you have to but you don't know how
|
(Go! Go! Go! Go!)
|
And you know that I know you can do without
|
(Go! Go! Go! Go!)
|
And I know that you need it so bad
|
Then I realize it's clear that you know that
|
In the end, I'll never know what hides inside your head
|
|
I don't want to seem ungrateful
|
I don't want to seem like I don't need anyone's help
|
To get me through the rainy days
|
To push through the haze
|
So I can get on my feet
|
And I can stand up and do what it takes
|
|
Hey, I don't want to seem ungrateful
|
I don't want to seem like I don't need anyone's help
|
To get me through the rainy days
|
To push through the haze
|
So I can get on my feet
|
And I can stand up and do what it takes [x2]
