Peace of mind it comes so slow
From that place where no one knows
But there's no rush I'm doing fine
The storm she lends me sanctuary
Watch the ships tossed out to sea
A silent angel dressed in wine

Sunday evening coming down
Light the fires all around
As yesterday goes up in flame
Ruffled wigs and crumpled flowers
A thousand ways to count the hours
Painted faces with no name

Ooh, ooh

Never thought that it would seem
My ego drowns my self esteem
Stop and stare into the rain
Look away it falls again
Sitting in my late night shrine
Empty suitcases and wine
You wear your faith against the rain
But it soaks you just the same

Let's wage a war, the hive mind's a place to start
Let's all find something, and we'll call it an art form
As I'm sat like an ant watch me die an old man
On my knees screaming "I'm still relevant"
I took a bottle, raised it to my head
Then I got another bottle, and I took it to my bed
Then I watched amazed, the world fell apart
Without some something to call an art
The silence is scary, mind wants substance
Feet tap, all they want to do is just dance
Where's the beat? It's not in 4/4
Life's not so simple, to play without a thought
You just want to sing, and hone-in on that note that you wrote
But where'd your confidence go?
My friend, you left it in the pocket of your coat

Ooh, ooh

Peace of mind it comes so slow
From that place where no one knows
Turn the lights off, sleep again
Let it rain now, let it rain
