Thinking of you again
As morning starts to breathe
The way you turn your face from the sun
The way you don't believe in anything
No passion in your kiss
You cry out in your sleep
Freeze each and every feeling you pose as
Afraid to run too deep
Because you say that it's too high for you to climb
This mountain I've been skating all my life
You know the road, you see the signs
You just choose to keep them out of mind
Out of mind
A painter who never paints
Your brush is cobweb-strung
Your canvases lie tattered and fading
Forgotten much too young
Still through the broken doors from time to time
I see the shadow of the man inside
It's not that he's so hard to find
You just choose to keep him out of mind
Trapped inside the prison you designed
You walk the lonely corridors all night
Too scared to smash the walls and run outside
Too scared to burn the torch
And light the blind dark
Where you always hide
Thought you could be with me
Thought you were up my drive
Thought you could be with me
Oh, you're afraid to try
Because you say that it's too high for you to climb
This mountain I've been skating all my life
I know the road, I see the signs
You just choose to keep them out of mind
And I know I need a rhythm for my rhyme
So if you'll never grow into my kind
I'll have to learn to keep you out of mind
I'll have to learn to keep you out of mind
Teach me how to keep you out of mind
Gotta learn to keep you out of mind
Gotta learn to keep you out of mind
I gotta learn to keep you out of mind, mind, mind, mind
