Vinyl Theatre Speak My Mind Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I got my new mind
Set on a shelf
Afraid to use it now
I never keep my head straight
Cause it's loose
Never talk cause it's no use
My brain says "quiet down"
Quiet now
But I seem to take the hits straight to my chest
Made of chainmail, yeah, at best
But it's no good in these modern days

[PreChorus]
Oh, maybe I'll escape
This prison in my headspace

[Chorus]
If I just speak my mind
Speak my mind
If I just speak my mind
Speak my mind

[Verse 2]
But I always get so tongue-tied on the truth
Too afraid of getting bruised
These thoughts get louder now
Make a sound
Tends to bring my heart rate through the roof
Hesitating on my ruse
Don't you quiet down
Make a sound

[PreChorus]
Oh, maybe I'll escape
This prison in my headspace

[Chorus]
If I just speak my mind
Speak my mind
If I just speak my mind
Speak my mind
If I just speak my mind...

[Bridge]
I see it in my head
This vision of heaven
I'm biting my tongue once again
Oh, tossing and turning
But nobody's listening
I don't want to sleep like this

[PreChorus]
Oh, maybe I'll escape
This prison in my headspace
Oh, maybe I'll escape
This prison in my headspace

[Chorus]
If I just speak my mind
Speak my mind
If I just speak my mind
Speak my mind

[Outro]
If I just speak my mind
If I just speak my mind
If I just speak my mind
