Mind Of A Junkie Lyrics

by Anders Osborne

I’m nervous I’m sweaty I hate to make amends
Bunch of opinions but I’m always on the fence
Pissed off and sad at the same time
Please somebody save me from my crazy mind

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e83922-anders_osborne~mind_of_a_junkie_lyrics.html ]
I try to read the Big Book but I can't see the words
And everytime I meditate the whole thing’s a blur
Panic attacks short of breath
I try to get things done when my body needs to rest

I’ve been living in the mind of a junkie
Thinking my junkie thoughts
Putting out my selfish aspirations
Oh not letting God into my heart

I don't pick up the phone and I can't sleep
I ain't got no appetite but I still overeat
Want peace and quiet but I keep running my mouth
My soul is like a hurricane but I’m still filled with self-doubts

I hate the way I look and my ego’s always bruised
I isolate myself I get some more tattoos
I’m always running late so I can't make any plans
I’m preaching ‘bout things that I don't understand

I’ve been living in the mind of a junkie
Thinking my junkie thoughts
Putting out my selfish aspirations
Mmm not letting God into my heart
Not letting God into my heart
