Verse 1

It started with a low light

Next thing I knew, they ripped me from my bed

And then they took my blood type

It left a strange impression in my head

You know that I was hoping

That I could leave this star-crossed world behind

But when they cut me open

I guess I changed my mind

Pre-Chorus

And you know, I might

Have just flown too far from the floor this time

'Cause they're calling me by my name

And they're zipping white light beams

Disregarding bombs and satellites

That was the turning point

That was one lonely night

Chorus

The storm maker says, "It ain't so bad"

The dream maker's gonna make you mad

The spaceman says, "Everybody, look down

It's all in your mind"

Verse 2

Well, now I'm back at home, and

I'm looking forward to this life I live

You know it's gonna haunt me

So hesitation to this life I give

You think you might cross over

You're caught between the devil and the deep blue sea

You'd better look it over

Before you make that leap

Pre-Chorus

And you know I'm fine

But I hear those voices at night sometimes

They justify my claim

And the public don't dwell on my transmission

'Cause it wasn't televised

But it was the turning point

Oh, what a lonely night

Chorus

The storm maker says, "It ain't so bad"

The dream maker's gonna make you mad

The spaceman says, "Everybody, look down

It's all in your mind"

The storm maker says, "It ain't so bad"

The dream maker's gonna make you mad

The spaceman says, "Everybody, look down

It's all in your mind"

Bridge

My global position systems are vocally addressed

They say the Nile used to run from east to west

They say the Nile used to run

From east to west

Pre-Chorus

I'm fine

But I hear those voices at night

Sometimes

Chorus

The storm maker says, "It ain't so bad"

The dream maker's gonna make you mad

The spaceman says, "Everybody, look down

It's all in your mind"

The storm maker says, "It ain't so bad"

The dream maker's gonna make you mad

The spaceman says, "Everybody, look down

It's all in your mind"

Outro

It's all in my mind

It's all in my mind
