Island in My Mind

I lived my whole life like any other man

Staring back at faces, trying to understand

Sometimes I don't know what is real

Sometimes I don't know how to feel

And sometimes I feel nothing and I don't know why

Every time she asks me why I never cry

There's an island in my mind

Nobody knows the things I hide

There's an island in my mind

I don't wanna talk about it

I don't wanna talk about it

The tide is bringing trouble from my past again

Burying my head down deeper in the sand

Sometimes I don't know what is real

Sometimes I don't know how to feel

And sometimes I feel nothing and I don't know why

Every time she asks me why I never cry

There's an island in my mind

Nobody knows the things I hide

There's an island in my mind

I don't wanna talk about it

I don't wanna talk about it

There's just no way around it

I don't wanna talk about it

Memories, they haunt me now

So I bury 'em all six feet down

Won't they please just let me be?

I wish the past would rest in peace

Every time she asks me why I never cry

There's an island in my mind

Nobody knows the things I hide

There's an island in my mind

I don't wanna talk about it

I don't wanna talk about it

There's just no way around it

I don't wanna talk about it
