Lyrics for Send Them Off!

It was a slight on my honor, so he deserved it But we're talking about the most brilliant mind this world has ever seen 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 Soak the ropes with your holy water Tie me down as you read out the words 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 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 Be the power to compel me Hold me closer than anyone before 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 I should be thinking 'bout nothing else When I'm with you-ou With you-ou, ohohoh I should be thinking 'bout nothing else When I'm with you-ou With you-ou, ohohoh Your mind exists somewhere altogether different It lives in a world where feelings simply cannot be defined by words Oh, 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 Help me exorcise my mind Won't you exorcise my mind?
