Peace of Mind

You mail the boxes early So they're there before your plane has hit the ground Your family gets together They're not used to thinking that you'll stick around And there's no use looking back and yet you can't help Can't help Waking every morning Wondering how the walls could change without a sound And nothing holds together Old and new are fighting for attention every day Sleepless, senseless Fighting the desire to run away And you hand is on the plug and yet you can't pull Can't pull Back from what you're scared of You find a kind of power in your own lone way And an eerie love surrounds you You hope that in the distance Some loving arms will open up for you But now you must resist it Cuz there's something else that you were made to do You can read until you're read and yet you must know Must know Peace of mind You need to feel the wires realign More than you need a lover
