lyrics

Mediocrity makes it hard to breathe
So let's go out and get coffee and cigarettes
I need to clear my mind and leave these thoughts behind
Mediocrity has got the best of me

Like stars the memories shine, with me all the time
I sail beneath their signs drawn upon the sky
My heart is like a hound that's leash and collar bound
Hear it howl and pine, whimper, growl and whine

In her eyes
I waste my time
In her eyes
I've lost my mind
Lost my mind

Winter's grip is gone, you can finally hear the song
Swelling like a sigh to crack the narrow sky
Her beauty is a breeze that's blowing on the beach
She makes these broken trees mean nothing to me

In her eyes
I waste all my time
In her eyes
I've lost my mind
Lost my mind
