vermillion heights - change your mind lyrics

[verse]
it’s like i can’t get out of bed
after twenty years of early mornings
the feeling sinks in
with the weight of regret
it’s like my habits are dead and dying
leaving me behind as i become a different person
this metamorphosis is prophecy
i saw it in the cards
the woman by the sea
and the person i was laid eyes on the person i could be

[chorus]
and is this where i should put the chorus?
one the bards would surely sing for us?
would repetition give you a clue
as to all of the changes
my mind’s gone through?
would a melody change your mind
if you heard it sung a thousand times?
if all these meters, rhymes and cues
could give someone a better clue
i’d sing them all to you

[verse]
but it’s like i’m tongue tied
it’s like i’m tongue tied
it’s like i’m tongue tied
it’s like i’m tongue tied up
trying to tell you all the things that i hide
my courage fades and i turn away
turn the tides, pull back inside
where the new version of myself resides
i see her eyes look into mine
in my dreams she’s alive
with confidence in stride
but a sneer, a slight
noticing features that she’s trying to hide
pushes her back inside with tears in my eyes
[chorus]
and yes, i think i’ll use a chorus
one the bards would surely sing for us
i hope this repetition gives you a clue
as to all of the changes
my mind’s gone through
i hope a melody can change your mind
if you hear it sung a thousand times
i hope these meters, rhymes and cues
can give someone a better clue
i’ll sing them all to you

[bridge]
it’s like i’m standing on the edge
it’s like i’m standing on the edge
it’s like i’m standing on the edge
with water below
it’s like i’m standing on the edge
with water below

and i forgot how to swim
knowing if i jump and breathe in slow
it’ll feel like i’ve been born again
i might just feel alive again
but i forgot how to swim
knowing if i jump and breathe in slow
it’ll feel like i’ve been born again
i might just feel alive again
again, again, again, again
it’s like i’m standing on the edge
with water below
it’s like i’m standing on the edge
with water below

words like anchors bring me down
(it’s like i’m standing on the edge)
without a sound, they’ll surely drown me
(with water below)
hate, like water, fills my lungs
(it’s like i’m standing on the edge)
no air to breathe, no voice to shout
(with water below)
