[Intro]

It was a slight on my honor, so he deserved it

But we're talking about the most brilliant mind this world's ever seen


[Verse 1]

I've got demons running round in my head

And they feed on insecurities I have

Won't you lay your healing hands on my chest?

Let your ritual clean


[Pre-Chorus]

Soak the ropes with your holy water

Tie me down as you read out the words


[Chorus]

Set me free from my jealousy

Won't you exorcise my mind? Won't you exorcise my mind?

I want to be free as I'll ever be

Exorcise my mind, help me exorcise my mind


[Verse 2]

Desdemona, won't you liberate me?

When I'm haunted by your ancient history

Close these green eyes and watch over as I sleep

Through my darkest of dreams


[Pre-Chorus]

Be the power to compel me

Hold me closer than anyone before


[Chorus]

Set me free from my jealousy

Won't you exorcise my mind? Won't you exorcise my mind?

I want to be free as I'll ever be

Exorcise my mind, help me exorcise my mind


[Bridge]

I should be thinking 'bout nothing else when I'm with you, with you, oh-oh-oh

I should be thinking 'bout nothing else when I'm with you, with you, oh-oh-oh


[Spoken Interlude]

"Your mind exists somewhere altogether different; it lives in a world where feelings simply cannot be defined by words"


[Chorus]

Set me free from my jealousy

Won't you exorcise my mind? Won't you exorcise my mind?

I want to be free as I'll ever be

Exorcise my mind, help me exorcise my mind


[Outro]

Help me exorcise my mind, won't you exorcise my mind?
