Lyrics
0:05I don't live in California,
0:07I'll inform you, that's not where I reside
0:09I'm just a tenant, paying rent inside this body and I
0:12Got two windows and those windows,
0:13Well I'll call them my eyes
0:15I'm just going where the wind blows,
0:17I don't get to decide
0:19Sometimes I think too much, yeah,
0:21I get so caught up
0:22I'm always stuck in my head
0:25I wish I could escape, I tried to yesterday
0:28Took all the sheets off my bed
0:30Then I tied up my linen with five strips of ribbon I found
0:37Scaled the side of the building
0:39I ran to the hills till they found me
0:42And they put me back in my cell
0:46All by myself, alone with my thoughts again
0:49I guess my mind is a prison and
0:52I'm never gonna get out
0:56So they tranquilized me, analyzed me,
0:58Tthrew me back in my cage
0:59Then they tied me to an IV, told me I was insane
1:03I'm a prisoner, a visitor inside of my brain
1:06And no matter what I do,
1:07They try to keep me in chains
1:10Sometimes I think to much, yeah,
1:11I get so caught up
1:13I'm always stuck in my head
1:16I wish I could escape, I tried to yesterday
1:19Took all the sheets off my bed
1:21Then I tied up my linen with five strips of ribbon I found
1:28Scaled the side of the building
1:30I ran to the hills till they found me
1:33And they put me back in my cell
1:36All by myself, alone with my thoughts again
1:40I guess my mind is a prison and
1:43I'm never gonna get out
1:48Said even if it's true, no matter what I do
1:51I'm never gonna escape
1:54I won't give up on hope, secure another rope
1:57And try for another day
2:00Said even if it's true, no matter what I do
2:04I'm never gonna escape
2:07I won't give up on hope, secure another rope
2:10And try for another day
2:12Then I tied up my linen with five strips of ribbon I found
2:19Scaled the side of the building
2:21I ran to the hills till they found me
2:24And they put me back in my cell
2:27All by myself, alone with my thoughts again
2:31I guess my mind is a prison and
2:34I'm never gonna get out
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 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 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 So they tranquilized me, analyzed me, Tthrew 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 Sometimes I think to 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 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 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 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
