lyrics

VERSE ONE:
I thought I had life figure out
Two years ago
I thought I was in love
She was beautiful
Pressures all around me
She was too much for me
So I broke her heart and wrote this song

VERSE TWO:
I thought I had life figured out
Two years ago
I thought he was the one
I gave it my all
Why did he give up on me?
Did he even love me?
Left with a broken heart
And wrote this song

CHORUS:
I just need peace of mind (peace of mind)
Peace of mind (oh peace of mind)
Peace of mind
That your bring

VERSE THREE:
Will I ever face the facts?
Learn to be a man
I need to get out of my skin
To love beyond myself
Why do I do this thing I don’t want to do?
Why do I hurt those I love the most?

VERSE FOUR:
Will I ever heal inside?
With all the pain I feel
I need to stop looking back
To love myself again
How could this happen to me, what did I do?
Will I ever love again?, I don’t even wanna try

CHORUS:
I just need peace of mind (peace of mind)
Peace of mind (oh peace of mind)
Peace of mind
That your bring
Ohh yeaa yeaa
Peace of mind (peace of mind)
Peace of mind (oh peace of mind)
Peace of mind
That you bring

OUTRO:
I thought I had life figure out
Two years ago
I thought I was in love
It was beautiful
