To Covet A Quiet Mind by The NYChillharmonic

lyrics

To covet a quiet mind
Is hard when you think in time
Not certain that you'll be mind
I'm sure though, that I'll be fine

I won't fight
Not for your loving, no I would much rather
Sleep all night
Without my mind filled with it's pointless chatter

This is what you came for x2

Leave me right
Cause all my truths are filled with your wears and tatters
Say goodnight
Cause every time you speak my head fills with laughter

This is what you came for x4

Yes I know
That I'd grow
If I let you know
Just to let me go x2

Ooh's x 3

All I feel
All I want now
All I need
Is a new world inside me
Let me in
With the lights out
Say you'll be
The thing that won't define me
(x2)
