when i went back home i wish i realized
that all my security and mental purity were not along for the ride
and, after spending one month working alone
i thought upon my return that once again i’d feel alive and in control
im in london doing everything i love so much
my girlfriend even surprised me, why do i feel so damn out of touch
i think im going back down, back down
im feeling pretty bad now, bad now
and i don’t know why, but isn’t that just the point
a summer i spent in my mind
waking up in a different place each week
trying positive hypnosis in this hopes it puts my troubled head at ease
why won’t anybody talk to me?
im craving a cigarette almost as much as some nice company
i don’t even really smoke, maybe i like the feel
of damaging your own body and pretending like it isn’t real
i think im going back down, back down
im feeling pretty bad now, bad now
and i don’t know why, but isn’t that just the point
a summer i spent in my mind
