[Intro]
[Primeira Parte]
I don t live in California, I ll inform you, that s not where I reside
I m just a tenant, paying rent inside this body and I
Got two windows and those windows, well I ll call them my eyes
I m just going where the wind blows, I don t get to decide
[Pré-Refrão]
Sometimes I think too much, yeah, I get so caught up
I m always stuck in my head
I wish I could escape, I tried to yesterday
Took all the sheets off my bed
[Refrão]
Then I tied up my linen with five strips of ribbon I found
Scaled the side of the building
I ran to the hills till they found me
And they put me back in my cell
All by myself, alone with my thoughts again
I guess my mind is a prison and I m never gonna get out
[Segunda Parte]
So they tranquilized me, analyzed me, threw me back in my cage
Then they tied me to an IV, told me I was insane
I m a prisoner, a visitor inside of my brain
And no matter what I do, they try to keep me in chains
[Pré-Refrão]
Sometimes I think too much, yeah, I get so caught up
I m always stuck in my head
I wish I could escape, I tried to yesterday
Took all the sheets off my bed
[Refrão]
Then I tied up my linen with five strips of ribbon I found
Scaled the side of the building
I ran to the hills till they found me
And they put me back in my cell
All by myself, alone with my thoughts again
I guess my mind is a prison and I m never gonna get out
[Ponte]
Said even if it s true, no matter what I do
I m never gonna escape
I won t give up on hope, secure another rope
And try for another day
Said even if it s true, no matter what I do
I m never gonna escape
I won t give up on hope, secure another rope
And try for another day
[Refrão]
