Here is yet another set of lyrics that I wrote for my former band:

Mind Wide Open

I put my pillow on the ocean floor
Drifting gently, hiding from the shore
Wishing you...
Could rescue me once more
Wishing you could rescue me once more

But if you can't, then that's okay
I'll lift my head and float away
Looking for another place to stay

I'll chase my shadow on an old rainbow
Laughing at the pain I see below
Wishing you...
Could show me where to go
Wishing you could show me where to go

But if you can't, then that's okay
I'll grab the gold and run away
Looking for another place to stay

I'll drive along the backroads of the moon
Looking for a party I can ruin
Wishing you...
Could come and save me soon
Wishing you could come and save me soon

But if you can't, then that's okay
I'll turn the keys and drive away
Looking for another place to stay

I'll find your soul and lock myself inside
Watching as your mind and heart collide
Wishing you...
Could see how much I tried
Wishing you could see how much I tried

But if you can't, then that's okay
I'll hold by breath and fade away
Looking for another place to stay
Another place to stay
Another way to say...

That I don't know where I'm going without you
No, I don't know where I'm going without you
Oh...I don't know where I'm going without you
