Shut Up Brain

from Roses Are Blue by Seb Woodland

/

lyrics

Shut up brain
How can you stop this train
This train of thought, because it's not on rails
And you're driving yourself insane
Realize
That if you'd only open your eyes
You'd find your place, and stop just chasing dreams
And these imaginary highs

Imaginary fears
These things you're thinking of
Imaginary nightmares waking you up
And out of love
Imagining that thing
Is causing you this pain
These thoughts aren't adding up
So just shut up brain

Shut up brain
Your needy thoughts are all in vain
This train of thought is clearly not productive
And there's nothing for you to gain
Realize
That if your body shakes or cries
It's not the end, it's still your friend you know
And it's okay to recognize

Imaginary fears
These things you're thinking of
Imaginary nightmares waking you up
And out of love
Imagining that thing
Is causing you this pain
These thoughts aren't adding up
So just shut up brain

I wish it was easy, but it's not
I wish it was simple, clear and plain
I wish I was happy with what I've got
I wish you would, I wish you would
Just shut up brain

No no no no no
Shut up brain
Ooh
No no no no no
Just shut up

Shut up brain
How can you stop this train
This train of thought, because it's not on rails
And you're driving yourself insane
Realize
That if you'd only open your eyes
You'd find your place, and stop just chasing dreams
And these imaginary highs

Imaginary fears
These things you're thinking of
Imaginary nightmares waking you up
And out of love
Imagining that thing
Is causing you this pain
These thoughts aren't adding up
So just shut up brain

I wish it was easy, but it's not
I wish it was simple, clear and plain
I wish I was happy with what I've got
I wish you would, I wish you would
Just shut up brain

No no no no no
Shut up brain
Ooh
No no no no no
Just shut up brain
Ooh
No no no no no
Just shut up
