Free My Mind

(album: The Waking Sleep - 2011)

My mind is like a heavy hand
Always making more of what really happened
A critical imagination always working over time
Maybe this is what the world will see
A tiny little version of the tallest tree
An optical illusion of the human mind
Posing as a real life

I never had my mind made up
Before the bomb dropped
And if I ever do decide to take a chance
Oh, the part that keeps me holding on

It'll be my mind
Awaken my mind
Awaken my mind
Open my eyes

Free my mind
Awaken my mind
Awaken my mind
Open my eyes

We like to watch the world go by
Paint a pretty picture with the perfect light
Build a happy home to live inside
Working till the sunrise.
But I haven't such a dream to keep
To spend another day counting sheep
Seven in a row will make a week
Enough to disappoint you

I never had my mind made up
Before the bomb dropped
And if I ever do decide to take a chance
Oh, the part that keeps me holding on

It'll be my mind
Awaken my mind
Awaken my mind
Open my eyes

Free my mind
Awaken my mind
Awaken my mind
Open my eyes

Never had my mind made up
No, I never had my mind made up
No, no, I never had my mind made up
Never had my mind made up
Never had my mind made

Never had my mind made up
No, I never had my mind made up
Oh no, I never had my mind made up
Never had my mind made up
Never had my mind made

It'll be my mind
Awaken my mind
Awaken my mind
Open my eyes

Free my mind
Awaken my mind
Awaken my mind
Open my eyes

Free my mind
Awaken my mind
Awaken my mind
Open my eyes

Free my mind
Awaken my mind
Awaken my mind
Open my eyes
