Here in my state of mind
Thinking it through. Fixated on you
Wondering what will I do
Will I come through? I haven't a clue
Tied up in emotional knots
How can I hang on and be what I'm not?
Just whispering the same words I've been
Pushing you away once again
Caught up in my state of mind
It never ends but still I pretend
that someday I'll hold you again
I know it's a lie but I can't reason why
You just can't be wrong
so I must try to be strong
Hoping so patiently
that you will befriend me
You must believe me
Is it too much to ask you to think it over?
Am I not worth anything?
Here in my state of mind I can't believe you'll never love me
If it doesn't come naturally it never will. My dreams can't fulfill
Up in your high tree you must resent me
But please let me down gently
You know I bruise much too easy
Living always the way that you do
Do you ever wonder if anyone relates to you?
It must be lonely so far above normal life
Here in my state of mind I'll never be what you want me to be
A hopeless romantic who can't see
My world's come undone cos you'll not be the one.
