Prison mind
Help me I’m the hostage of my head
It’s like I’m blind
Blinded by this mirror rough our bed
I try to find
I will find cracks in every little thing you’ve said
Now you cry
Feeling like you’re kissing my silhouette
There are miles behind my eyes
as I work out what’s real life
I reach out
I wanna live in the real world
I wanna love in the real world
I want a life in the real world
Living in the real world with you
Wanna live in the real world
I wanna love in the real world
I want a life in the real world
Living in the real world with you
I don’t feel
Let me ride the contour of your heart
You’re so real
Living in each moment like the last
I’m like a wheel, like a wheel
Going over vile things in our past
Try to conceal
To shield you from this shit behind my mask
Let the faith that’s in your heart
Keep us from falling apart
Touch me now
I wanna live in the real world
I wanna love in the real world
I want a life in the real world
Living in the real world with you
Wanna live in the real world
I wanna love in the real world
I want a life in the real world
Show me all the things I can do
Living in a real world with you
The storm shows no sign of showing
Warning lights inside my mind suspend me in time
I’m thinking too much to feel anything
Paralysed by the fear
Just wanna be here
Touch me with that trust in your heart
Let the faith inside your mind consume mine
Take me back to the start
Take me back to the start
Feeling only love
Feeling only love
Take me back to the start
Take me back to the start
Feeling only love
Feeling only love
Take me back to the start
Take me back to the start
Feeling only love
Feeling only love
Take me back to the start
Take me back to the start
Feeling only love
Feeling only love
