This is the state of my mind | when you gonna let me out of the light? These orange and yellows aren't making me mellow Up tight | is the state of my mind And i never hear what the people say Until over this river of thoughts they deliver | up tight thoughts Into the state of my mind Oh when are you gonna let me unwind? 'cause i'm born of thunder but stripped of my wonder [ooh hoo] [ooh hoo] The world is bright grey [ooh hoo] I must have fallen asleep that day [ooh hoo] The world is bright grey, [ooh hoo] [ooh hoo] And that's the state of my mind Oh when are you gonna let me out of the light? Fore these orange and yellows aren't making me mellow | no more And it's a hell of a bore [ooh hoo] [ooh hoo] The world is bright grey [ooh hoo] [ooh hoo] I'm must have fallen asleep that day [ooh hoo] [ooh hoo] The world is bright grey [ooh hoo] [ooh hoo] [ooh hoo] [ooh hoo] And that's the sate of my mind
