about

First single from the new album 'Northern' by The Mint 400.

lyrics

I gave you everything
The love that I had
The things I possessed
If only there were some way to ease my
Restlessness
Posessions mean nothing to me
I don’t care what happens to me
In my mind
I’m a prisoner and
You did this to me

Unless your name is love
You can’t come in
And if your name is heartbreak
You can’t return
I tried again and again
To disappear
But I lost in the end
Now I’m a slave
A slave to my fear
Will it ever end?

I don’t want to live in the past
My mind won’t set me free
It’s a constant battle, trying to contain my
Jealousy
If I can sleep at all
I’m dreaming of you
It all comes back
It’s just as if I’m hypnotised, or
Under attack

Unless your name is love
You can’t come in
And if your name is heartbreak
You can’t return
I tried again and again
To disappear
But I lost in the end
Now I’m a slave
A slave to my fear
Will it ever end?

So many years have passed
My feelings persist
And nothing changes
I knew the consequences and I
Faced the dangers

Unless your name is love
You can’t come in
And if your name is heartbreak
You can’t return
I tried again and again
To disappear
But I lost in the end
Now I’m a slave
A slave to my fear
Will it ever end?
