I listen to my own soothing words
I cover myself so I won't see the world
If anyone could see me I would cave in
My mind's not really made for living

Can I, can I (is it too much to ask)
Have a little peace of mind

I can't imagine being someone else
But sometimes it feels just like an easy way
I manage to control my way of being
Maybe I should try and let it rest

Can I can I (is it too much to ask)
Have a little peace of mind

What if I feel fine
What if I feel nice
What if I feel great
Do I know what I really feel

Can I can I (is it too much to ask)
Have a little peace of mind
