island in my mind

i've lived my whole life like any other man

staring back at faces tryna understand

sometimes i don't know what is real

sometimes i don't know how to feel

and sometimes i feel nothing and i don't know why

every time she asks me why i never cry

there's an island in my mind

nobody knows the things i hide

there's an island in my mind

i don't wanna talk about it

i don't wanna talk about it

the tide is bringing trouble from my past again

burying my head down deeper in the sand

sometimes i don't know what is real

sometimes i don't know how to feel

and sometimes i feel nothing and i don't know why

every time she asks me why i never cry

there's an island in my mind

nobody knows the things i hide

there's an island in my mind

i don't wanna talk about it

i don't wanna talk about it

there's just no way around it

i don't wanna talk about it

memories

they haunt me now

so i bury 'em all six feet down

won't they please just let me be

i wish the past would rest in peace

every time she asks me why i never cry

there's an island in my mind

nobody knows the things i hide

there's an island in my mind

i don't wanna talk about it

i don't wanna talk about it

there's just no way around it

i don't wanna talk about it
