"The Corner Of My Mind" lyrics

"The Corner Of My Mind"

As I walk beneath the evening sky, a darkness closes in
Victimized by my mind, the violins start to sing

Come to me, my dear, for you are what it takes
To piece my heart together when the glass begins to break

Standing by the moonlit lake, I waited all night long
Searching for forgiveness after all that I've done wrong

Come to me, my dear, for you have what it takes
To rid me of my misery and look past my mistakes

Oh there's a beast that lives in the corner of my mind
And you are the only one to make his eyes appear kind

I called by my father's house and he closed the door on me
He said you're no daughter of mine, and you never will be

The birds all flew away from the echo of the gun
Come to me, my dear, for you're the only one
For you're the only one

Oh there's a beast that lives in the corner of my mind
And you are the only one to make his eyes appear kind

La la la la la...

Oh there's a beast that lives in the corner of my mind
And you are the only one to make his eyes appear kind
