Off My Mind
Radio Company Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Trade it all in for something new
Blame it on the way we were put together
While some remedy's forsaken you
Oh, and how do I get you off my mind
With you back in my bed
How do I get you off my mind
You can only stay awake so long
While deciding what is true
I lean in for a kiss upon your shoulder
Realize it wouldn't do, not with you
So, how do I get you off my mind
With you back in my bed
How do I get you off my mind
Can't have you living in my head
How do I get you off my mind
(How do I get you off my mind)
With you back in my bed
(With you back in my bed)
How do I get you off my mind
(How do I get you off my mind)
Can't have you living in my head
(Living inside my head)
The lyrics of Radio Company's "Off My Mind" describe the difficult process of letting go of someone who has left a profound impact on the singer's life. The opening lines, "all you gotta do is nothing, trade it all in for something new," suggest that the person who left was not actively trying to hurt the singer, but simply moved on to something else. The line "blame it on the way we were put together" implies a sense of resignation that the relationship was doomed from the start due to outside forces beyond their control.
As the song progresses, the singer struggles with their feelings for this person, even though they know deep down that it is not practical or healthy to pursue them. Lines such as "how do I get you off my mind, can't have you living in my head" show the internal conflict that the singer is experiencing. They are torn between their desire for this person and their knowledge that they need to move on.
The chorus repeats the same questions, emphasizing the frustration and desperation that the singer is feeling. The final lines, "Can't have you living in my head, living inside my head," drive home the central theme of the song. Ultimately, the singer knows that they need to let go of this person in order to move on with their life, but that is easier said than done.

All you gotta do is nothing
You don't need to do anything at all
Trade it all in for something new
Give up what you have and start fresh
Blame it on the way we were put together
Fault lies in how we were made
While some remedy's forsaken you
Even though some cure may have abandoned you
Oh, and how do I get you off my mind
How do I stop thinking about you
With you back in my bed
Although you're sleeping with me again
Can't have you living in my head
I can't keep thinking about you all the time
You can only stay awake so long
You can't stay alert forever
While deciding what is true
When trying to find out what's real
I lean in for a kiss upon your shoulder
I try to kiss you gently on your shoulder
Realize it wouldn't do, not with you
I understand that it's not right, especially with you
How do I get you off my mind
How can I stop thinking about you
Can't have you living in my head
I can't keep you in my thoughts all the time

Seriously....Someone explain to my why this is so damn underrated? I dont understand how they only have 26k subs....This deserves so much more attention
@alishatollison878
Real damn music and we ain’t at 2 million yet blows my mind
@angelicaf9535
RIGHT!!! This blows my mind too. Seriously I haven't bought music in years. I fell for this album like immediately and I wasn't even a huge fan of spn (actually started watching the show only recently) so I can't say I was a Jensen / Steve stan before actually hearing him / them sing and play. I really think they deserve more audience, their music is awesome.

Jensen. Thank you for helping me survive my depression I've have suffered with my entire life. Always felt down constantly and never helped until Supernatural and your music. You, Jared and Misha have to be some of the kindest people on this planet. Thank you. You've all helped countless others even if you did it indirectly sometimes. I guess that's the power of the internet and a lot of SPN fans.

It was like having 'sweet nothings' whispered into your ears until the end of the swell at 2:58; which took it to another place that was hard to ignore.
