Made Up My Mind - David Gray

Lightening strikes, silver motorbikes

Roaring

Down the open road, wind on my skin

I’m hungry to begin, my cup

Has overflown

So let fall the rain down into these desert

Veins

Taking back what they stole

These diamonds in the

Mine

Can afford to become fine

In someone else’s pigeon

Hole

So I made up my mind

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 ocean’s

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
