Made Up My Mind

Made Up My Mind - David Gray

Lightening strikes silver motorbikes

Roaring down the open road

Wind on my skin I'm hungry to begin

And my cup has overflown

So let fall the rain down

Into these desert veins

I'm taking back what they stole

These diamonds in the mine

Can afford to become fine

In someone elses pigeon hole

So I made up my mind

I made up my mind

Gonna move on ahead

Instead of lagging behind

Half past seven way up in the heaven

The stars are singing in the sky

Lying half dressed your head upon my breast

Listening to the oceans lullaby

Standing where we are it seems so far

From the cold light of day

With the faces full of grief

And the grinding up of teeth

Has been eating my belief away

So I made up my mind

I made up my mind

Gonna move on ahead

Instead of lagging behind

Instead of lagging now

Cracks in the veneer and the light so severe

Shining down the avenue

Try to join the throng

But it's feeling all wrong

What are you supposed to do

Shoulder that despair take a lung of dirty air

Turn to watch the sun set red

And the ruins of a culture of a sky

That's filled with vultures

Circling over your head

So I made up my mind

I made up my mind

Gonna move on ahead

Instead of lagging behind

Instead of lagging behind

I made up my mind

I made up my mind

I made up my mind

I made up my mind
