Lock Your Mind

It's gone, my favorite hat
I think I'm getting fat
Calculator on the table
I would use it if I was able to
But my hands are broken
My violin is in pieces
My soul jumps from the building

Can't hear a thing cause the voices in my head are screaming so loud
Only one thing to do when they come around

Clarinets are pouring from my ears
Centipedes are breaking through my eyes
And the darkness is eating me from the inside
Cannibals are waiting behind my back
Crocodiles are lurking inside our house
Lock your mind to make them go away
Lock your mind to make them go away

Everyone please, don't crack my forehead
I can see the glass in your eyes
Maybe I should try get some help
But I don't wanna feel defeated
So much still left unspoken
The pile of silent words increases
My brain needs some rebuilding

Feeling happy for a second cause I like to drink pine-apple juice
(or whatever)
But my mind is soon on the loose again

Clarinets are pouring from my ears
Centipedes are breaking through my eyes
And the darkness is eating me from the inside
Cannibals are waiting behind my back
Crocodiles are lurking inside our house
Lock your mind to make them go away
Lock your mind to make them go away

Can I ever escape from these phantoms?
I guess only time will tell me
Think pessimistic and you won't be disappointed
Happiness will come eventually
Until then I guess I have to walk the tightrope
And stairs that seem to lead to nowhere
And I must keep everything locked in my mind

Clarinets are pouring from my ears
But it's not the time to face my fears

Clarinets are pouring from my ears
Centipedes are breaking through my eyes
And the darkness is eating me from the inside
Cannibals are waiting behind my back
Crocodiles are lurking inside our house
Lock your mind to make them go away
Why would you lock your mind?
It doesn't go away
You just lock your mind
For another day
