"You Never Knew My Mind" lyrics
"You Never Knew My Mind"
I know you feel the way I change
But you can't change the way I feel
Sometimes I'm a stranger to you
One of a kind
And I think some way you'll make it
Though you don't know how to take it
Sometimes you're a stranger to me
One of a kind
There were times of lots of laughter
And you felt you understood
We were carefree, open, and honest
Lovin', easy, kind, and true
And I suppose you never doubted
That we were altogether fine
You never really knew my mind
You never really knew my mind
My silence holds the secrets find
I answer but don't answer
You did not see me well enough
To recognize the signs
You didn't want to notice
Or know that it was over
I did not see you well enough
To recognize the signs
And there were times of lots of laughter
And you felt you understood
We were carefree, open, and honest
Lovin', easy, kind, and true
And I suppose you never doubted
That we were altogether fine
Then you saw the changes painfully
And you knew
You never really knew my mind
And I suppose you never doubted
That we were altogether fine
Sometimes I'm a stranger to you
Sometimes you're a stranger to me
Sometimes, maybe all the time
You never really knew my mind
I never really knew your mind

Rival Sons - "Feral Roots" On the mountain where I was born
There are trees that would call my name
On the wind they would bring a song
For every feral ear to claim
They'd say keep your eyes open
And we'll teach you to dream...
3 Doors Down - "When I'm Gone" There's another world inside of me that you may never see
There's secrets in this life that I can't hide
But somewhere in this darkness
There's a light that I can't find
Well maybe it's too far away,...
The Killers - "Land Of The Free" Can't wipe the wind-blown smile from across my face
It's just the old man in me
Washing his truck at the Sinclair station
In the land of the free (Ooh)
His mother, Adeline's family, came on a ship...
Bruce Springsteen - "The Ghost Of Tom Joad" Men walking along the railroad tracks
Going someplace, there's no going back
Highway patrol choppers coming up over the ridge
Hot soup on a campfire under the bridge
Shelter line stretching around...
Silverchair - "Cemetery" Need a change
Not to imitate
But to irritate
All the ones who hate
I may be late
Always seem to get the wrong date
Well, I guess it's fate
I live in a cemetery
Full of good will and integrity
You...
