I don`t live in california
I`ll inform you that`s not where I reside
I`m just a tenant
Paying rent inside this body and I
Got two windows and those windows
Well I`ll call them my eyes
I`m just going 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 off my bed
Then I tied up my linen
With five strips of ribbon I found
Scaled the side of the building
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
I 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 to 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 off my bed
Then I tied up my linen
With five strips of ribbon I found
Scaled the side of the building
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
I 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 building
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
I guess my mind is a prison
And I`m never gonna get out
