Out of My Head Lyrics

Back in time oh I go wandering
Through the rooms of my mind
Every door that I’ve been closing
All the people that I have let down

On a river I’m floating down the stream
And back again
Like a beggar on my knees
Am I running out of time

Stuck inside my dreaming
Falling behind
Running on low
Does it matter now
Let me out, out of my mind
Out of my head oh oh

Words hung heavy upon my shoulders
Slowly drowning in the sound
Every door just flew open
Praying I’d stay tethered to the ground

On a river I’m floating down the stream
And back again
Like a prisoner set me free
Am I running out of time

Stuck inside my dreaming
Falling behind
Running on low
Does it matter now
Let me out, out of my mind
Out of my head oh oh
Out of my head out of my mind

On a river I’m floating down the stream
And back again
Like a beggar on my knees
Am I running out of time

All my dreaming
All my trials
Where they’ll lead
Does it matter now

Let me out, out of my mind
Stuck inside my dreaming
Falling behind
Running on low
Does it matter now
Let me out, out of my mind
Out of my head oh oh
Out of my head out of my mind
Out of my head oh oh
Out of my head oh oh

Cover art for Out of My Head lyrics by First Aid Kit

This song is my lament. Let me out of my head, my thinking and dreaming (even "nightmaring") patterns that have cost me so much time. I am older now, running on low both in my health as well as my ability to withstand my own failings to find, open and go through doors. I am running out of time to work on my realities rather than being stuck inside my dreaming. I need to move out on a journey going somewhere rather than falling behind and running on low. And so I begin. I will let myself out, thank you. :-)
