Made up My Mind Songtext

von David Gray

Lightning strikes
Silver motorbikes
Roaring down the open road
Wind on my skin
I'm hungry to begin
And my cup has overflowed

So let fall the rain
Down into these desert veins
I'm taking back what they stole
The diamonds in my mind
Can't afford to be confined
To someone else's pigeon hole

So I made up my mind
I made up my mind
Gonna move on ahead
Instead of lagging behind

Half past seven
Way up in the heavens
Stars are singing in the sky
Lying half dressed
Your head upon my breast
Listening to the ocean's lullaby

Standing where we are
It seems so far
In the cold light of day
And the faces full of grief
And the grinding of teeth
Has been eating my belief away

So I made up my mind
I made up my mind
Gonna move on ahead
Instead of lagging behind
Instead of lagging now

Cracks in the venier
And the light so severe
Shining down the avenue
Try to join the throne
But it's feeling all wrong
What are you supposed to do?

Shoulder that dispair
Take along the dirty air
Turn to watch the sunset rip
On the ruins of a culture
And the sky thats filled with vultures
Circling over your head

So I made up my mind
I made up my mind
Gonna move on ahead
Instead of lagging behind

I made up my mind
I made up my mind
I made up my mind
