mind.in.a.box Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

You so tired,
I said - ""Nevermind!
Let's go for the ride.""
It was night,
We were driving into the mountainside.
Oh, how it feels!
The wind in my hair.
Yeah, this is real,

The fresh Freedom air.
And I don't know
Where We should go…

Destination Unknown,
Destination Unknown

Sometimes I wanna run away from all
In the destination unknown
Maybe you don’t understand me
But you will remember suddenly
When you want to be free

Destination Unknown,
Destination Unknown

Destination Unknown,
Destination Unknown.
