a quiet mind

Blue October

A slow strangle with feet on the floor
I've got 14 angels and we're sleeping alone
In the back of a cave, where the rest of us go
To feel normal

I call baby up
Leave me alone
I'm in pain but I won't let you band-aid the wound
I'm mad at a stage where I can't even handle my own

Give me a quiet mind and I
I love you
You give me a quiet mind and I
I love you
Until the end

Give me strength to be kind to combine
All the good things in life that were so hard to find
But I have and I won't let them go like I do with my friends

Still bearing voices
From front
From behind
They're the reasons I choose
When to live
How to die
When to cast
When to reel
When to buy
When to steal
When to fiend for the friends that taught me
Being inappropriate will

Give me a quiet mind and I
I love you
You give me a quiet mind and I
I love you
Till the end
