In My Mind
M86 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

In my mind
Intertwined
Are our limbs twisted

Chase your goals
Chills for hours
Chemicals lifted
I'll lay the stones
And you'll come walking

Fill in all the holes
From our explosions????????

You, you
In my mind
You, you
My mind
(Mind, mind, mind)

Hear your call
I capsize????

We keep chasing
Exit signs
As if they existed

You and me are madness
And I'll explore it

Waitin' for your return
And now you own (owe?) me????????

You, you
In my mind
You, you
My mind
(Mind, mind, mind)????????

You, you
In my mind
You, you




My mind
(Mind, mind, mind)
