Minds on Other Things

What's the message you want her to hear?
You know what you wanna say
but the words disappear.

'Cause I'm down, but not out yet,
Hit the ground, but bounced off it,
Heard the sound of both thoughts whizzing by.

What's the feeling you wish you could feel?
You swing for a home-run
But it's just the one base you steal
I lie down, but not for too long
I find out what I knew all along
Head home, but home's not where I'm from.

'Cause I'm down, but not out yet.
Hit the ground, but bounced off it,
Heard the sound of both thoughts whizzing by.
But what's the point in hanging around, I sigh,
Even as my mind is popping out of my brain.
'Cause she's wasting all my energy as her mind does trips
Around the galaxy.

What's the message you wanna relay?
You know what you wanna say
But the words, they fade away.

Because I'm down, but not out yet.
Hit the ground, but bounced off it
Heard the sound of both thoughts whizzing by.
But what's the point in hanging around, I sigh,
Even as my mind is popping out of my brain.
'Cause she's wasting all my energy as her mind does trips
Around the galaxy.

('Cause) Her mind's on other things more important than me.
