[Verse 1]
I try to run away and put my mind at rest
Tomorrow it’s over (Oh)
I know that I am wrong but still I do my best
And try to stay sober (Oh)

[Chorus]
My mind is taking over
And now I think I’m closer to God

[Verse 2]
(Oh) You see it every day when you watch the news
You cannot escape it (Oh)
But this is not the truth, there is always hope
This is not the end (Oh)

[Chorus]
You can't escape the thoughts you have
And so you sacrifice yourself (Oh)

[Breakdown]
(Oh)
(Oh)

[Verse 3]
(You can't see anyway, can't get your mind at rest)
(Tomorrow it’s over)
(You think that I will leave, yet say I do my best)
(And try to stay sober)
[Chorus]
(My mind is taking over)
And now I think I’m closer to God
