lyrics

[lyrics]

I'd have hoped by now that you'd shut your mouth
and selfish minds belong together
Have you ever wished for something more
Then realised you'd rather be in the before

You know the sound that plays inside your mind when you make a big mistake
I recommend you get away, 'cause I'm not responsible for what I say
You know the sound that plays inside your mind when you make a big mistake
Apprehend the mind astray, lock it up and throw away the key today

Unprovoked, I mount a strong endeavour
Righteous hopes are wrong forever
Have you ever fought with all your strength
Then realised you've barely made the smallest dent

Wait, what's that I hear
There's a siren in my head

You know the sound that plays inside your mind when you make a big mistake
(You twist and shift all I say)
I recommend you get away, 'cause I'm not responsible for what I say
You know the sound that plays inside your mind when you make a big mistake
(I despair what I bear today)
Apprehend the mind astray, lock it up and throw away the key today
