Lyrics:
I thought I saw your ghost
From a corner of my eye
Sittin' in the old rocking chair
You were reading Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee
I turned my head, but you weren't really there
My mind is cruel to me
My mind can be cruel to me
I swear I heard your voice callin' out to me
From somewhere a long ways away
I follow the sound
But you're nowhere to be found
I still think I heard something on that day
My mind is cruel to me
There's some nights it just won't leave me be
Well most times it's fine
But it's a very thin line
My mind can be cruel to me
I dreamt we were riding horses
Across the western plain
Camping at night; sittin' round the fire
Singin' Home, Home on the range
But I woke up to find it wasn't so
This feeling that I intimately know
My mind is cruel to me
My mind can be cruel to me
Well the fabric of reality is stretching pretty thin
I can't believe the things that I see
It ain't a permanent condition the shape I'm in
I can't seem to trust my memory
My mind is cruel to me
There's some nights it just won't leave me be
Well most times it's fine
But it's a very thin line
My mind is cruel to me
My mind can be cruel to me
