Ellen Winter - My Mind Won't Let My Heart Be

I used to feel so much
I'd wake up in a haze
Distorted proportions
Of past bodiless voices
Screaming my name

I used to crave your touch
Sick to my gut every day
And I'd be tossing and turning
Up 'til dawn every morning
How did I live that way?

Now I get so high
And I ride the wave down
Oh I get so damn high and I ride

And I feel fucking stupid
I feel fucking dumb
Like I don't fucking know
How to be someone
To anybody I'm fucking
Or who's fucking me
I used to feel something
I used to be free
But now
My mind won't let my heart be

I used to suck it up
Keep a stiff upper lip
Oh cause I'd rather stay quiet
Than incite a riot
But I'm through with that shit

I used to shut my mouth
For fear of hearing my thoughts aloud
But keeping 'em caged
Only made 'em enraged
And now they're fighting to get
Out

To get
Out
To get
Out
Out

Now I get so high
And I ride the wave down
Oh I get so damn high and I ride

And I feel fucking stupid
I feel fucking dumb
Like I don't fucking know
How to be someone
To anybody I'm fucking
Or who's fucking me
I used to feel something
I used to be free

But now
I feel fucking stupid
I feel fucking dumb
Like I don't fucking know
How to be someone
To anybody I'm fucking
Or who's fucking me
I used to feel something
I used to be free

But now
My mind won't let my heart be
My mind won't let my heart be
My mind won't let my heart be
