Free My Mind

Free My Mind By Kevin Robey July 27, 2013 The darkness never stops, it over-pursues I can’t put down my thoughts of you So I put on the mask, and freeze my heart The pain I should have seen from the start Empty inside, I’ll wear an inviting smile That tells you I’m ok if only for a while When numbness ensues, it will be true I’ll see the night sky and enjoy the view ‘Cause you won’t be here, but neither will I I’ll bury my eyes in the depths of my alibis This game of deceit is a victim less crime It ensures the survival of my fragile mind With the weight on my heart finally lifted My smile free of a mind that slowly drifted I’ll finally see the windy roads in front of me That will bring me to you, and the life I see One day I’ll remember the lies that will dress my breath That once saved my weary heart from a certain death Forgiveness will be in line from my mind that I’ve defied Knowing the price is justified to re-align these bright eyes
