Alec Benjamin songs lyrics

𝑴𝒊𝒏𝒅 𝒊𝒔 𝒂 𝒑𝒓𝒊𝒔𝒐𝒏

I don't live in California
I'll inform you that's not where I reside
I'm just a tenant
Payin' rent inside this body and I
Got two windows
And those windows
Well, I call them my eyes
I'm just goin' 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 of my bed
Then I tied up my linen with
Five strips of ribbon I found
Scaled the side of the buildin'
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
Guess my mind is a prison and
I'm never gonna get out
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
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 of my bed
Then I tied up my linen with
Five strips of ribbon I found
Scaled the side of the buildin'
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
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 buildin'
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
Guess my mind is a prison and
I'm never gonna get out
