My Mind's a Ship That's Going Down (OurVinyl Sessions)

I guess I like my job just fine
Taking orders, pouring wine
Yet inside, I am so unsure
'Cause I long to be so much more
When I get home from work at night
I read up on the New York Times
Doze off in my computer screen
And pray it’s all a crazy dream
Through all the noise
She’s the anchor that is keeping me sound
Oh, my mind’s a ship that’s going down
I saw big tall mountains of green
On the cover of a magazine
And thought to myself with a smile
«I think I’ll go there for a while»
So I boarded a big jet plane
Left my problems in the USA
Had a lovely time in Ecuador
Now I’m right back where I was before
Through all the noise
She’s the anchor that is keeping me sound
Oh, my mind’s a ship that’s going down
Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh
Oh, Hollywood has stole my soul
Those city lights swallow me whole
She’s nothing like the models on the screen
No, she’s the realest thing I’ve ever seen
Through all the noise
Love’s the only thing that matters anyhow
Oh, my mind’s a ship that’s going down
Oh, my mind’s a ship that’s going down
Oh, my mind’s a ship that’s going down
