Sweet Mind Of Mine

(Karianne Gabaldon)

A song about overdosing on pills and alcohol and landing yourself in the mental hospital. It’s based on the writer’s life, but the story can always be switched around.

(Verse 1) 
 
Having my first round, drinking so voices could thrill, 
Stumbling over reaching for the counter pills, 
Apple Schnapps, Bacardi,  
Oh, what a party,  
Thanks for the invite. 
 
I’m tripping on the words that I’m trying to say to calm down, 
But the voices keep yelling, talking their way through the town, 
Can’t quite make up most of the stuff they’re saying but not polite, 
Then I collapse suddenly and oh my God, I’m gone tonight. 
 
(Chorus) 
 
Mind of mine, 
You came without a warning sign, 
I cannot live with this travesty I have living inside of my sick, demented mind. 
Mind of mine, 
You told them all that I was fine, 
How could you lie to each every one out there you have quite a scare for your worthless crimes, 
Sweet mind of mine. 
 
(Verse 2) 
 
Well let’s pick back up where I’m waking up on the floor, 
Racheal is smacking my trashed face, Amelia comes in through the door. 
And I don’t remember much but waking up in the emergency room, 
And I remember how I was set up for tragical doom. 
 
(Chorus) 
 
Mind of mine, 
You came without a warning sign, 
I cannot live with this travesty I have living inside of my sick, demented mind. 
Mind of mine, 
You told them all that I was fine, 
How could you lie to each every one out there you have quite a scare for your worthless crimes, 
Sweet mind of mine.
