lyrics

TROUBLED MIND

Takes a Thor to throw the thunder
Takes a Christ to calm the sea
There’s any ways of going under
If you’re anything like me

Burning bridges ’cross the river
I could rail forever on a train
Ride my nightmares out to never
And bring em all back home again

I’ve been gone too long
Had to take a little time
I make my bed in a troubled mind
If you come with me
Gonna lay it on the line
I make my bed in a troubled mind

No flash of lightning from the tunnel
No aurora borealis from above
No colder comfort to discover
I kill everything I love

Did I go too far
Had to fly a little blind
I make my bed in a troubled mind
If you ride with me
Gonna lay it on the line
I make my bed in a troubled mind – singing

In the morning I’m alive, it’s all too much to believe
Take a boot as big as God to kick the hell out of me
Take a telescope inside my skull to see what I mean, what I mean
If you see what I mean

I been gone too long
Had to waste a little time
I make my bed in a troubled mind
If you lie with me
Gonna lay it on the line
I make my bed in a troubled mind

It seems I’m always driving ninety
When I dream I can still hear that engine moan
But when I wake I always find me
Still a million miles from home

Did I go too far
Had to taste a little time
I make my bed in a troubled mind
If you come with me
Gonna lay it on the line
I make my bed in a troubled mind
I make my bed in a troubled mind
I make my bed in a troubled
