311 - Places That The Mind Goes Lyrics






If I don't have to ride your rollercoaster anymore
Then I won't wait in line like all the other poor souls
Waiting just to be told that your ride's oversold
And I don't have to worry about that anymore

But still I happen to know
That when the lights get low
The places that the mind goes

If I don't hear you voice back on the telephone
If I don't read your name on any letter I open
Well I still keep on hoping
With every door as it opens you'll be standing on the other side

Well experience shows
That when the lights get low
The places that the mind goes

Why guess
Why look
Why ask
When still you do the same
Cross out
Stars crossing once again
Who's star to blame

Yes I happen to know
Places that the mind goes

If I dissolve by two would you agree with me at all
Mark it in your blueprints on the cutting room floor
Making changes as you go, they're almost ready to show
I don't have to worry about you anymore

But I happen to know
That when the lights get low
Yes I happen to know
That when the lights get low
The places that the mind goes

    Definitely the worst song on the album

    t.... ....

    Buck Futtler extension is awesome though what are you listening to?

    the guitar lick from extension is a blatant sublime ripoff...and nicks spoken word is SO annoying.

    311 Lyrics

    If I don't have to ride your roller coaster anymore then I won't wait in line like all the other poor souls, waiting just to be told that your ride's oversold, that I don't have to worry about that anymore
    But still I happen to know that when lights get low, the places that the mind goes
    If I don't hear your voice back on the telephone, if I don't read your name on any letter I open, will I still keep on hoping with every door as it opens you'll be standing on the other side 
    Will experience shows that when the lights get low, the places that the mind goes
    So I've guessed, so I looked, why I ask when still you do the same, cross out stars crossing once again who's star to blame
    Yes I happen to know
    Places that the mind goes
    Devide this all by two if you agree with me at all, mark it in your blueprints on cutting room floor, making changes as you go, they're almost ready to show, I don't have to worry about you anymore
    But I happen to know that when the lights get low, yes I happen to know that when the light get low, the places that the mind goes...

    U.... M....

    Thank you!

  35. m.... k....

    Badass! brush up on this album. I went the Cleveland show, they played about 7 songs of mosiac.

  36. U.... ....

    i felt moved

  37. L.... F....

    What a snorefest. Such a confusing band.

    L.... F....

    he's just trolling you guys. he has no life.

    L.... F....

    Lars Faye snorefest? How can you not feel something when listening to this song?

    L.... F....

    You sound insecure af, "my wife is hot" nobody cares.  Btw, the band's been making consistent good music for 25 years, can you just let them switch it up and try cool and new gems like this track?

    L.... F....

    🙄Haters will always hate, now that’s what’s confusing -take your negativity elsewhere, you obviously don’t have a clue because ur head is so far up your wife’s ass, 311 has and always will
    Be all about unity and positivity-which u obviously DON’T get...smh get lost .

    L.... F....

    This song is dope. YOU are just confused about what good music is. These guys are getting older and their sound is changing. We're all getting older. Get over it. Shit still hits the soul deep.

  38. r.... ....

    my favorite after first listen through. i must be getting old.

  39. J.... D....

    This is the Reggae I really Love to listen to.
    311 for ever and now

  40. m.... ....

    If you don't feel something when listening to this, immediately put two fingers on your wrist and check for a pulse. Wow. <3

    m.... ....

    missmellymac Hell yeah.... this is gotta be one the most chilliest songs they have ever wrote. Outstanding 😎

    m.... ....

    For real this song is amazing I'm just hearing it. So irie

  41. m.... ....

    sounds like sade

    m.... ....

    You mean "Sade sounds like 311." Honest mistake.

  42. P.... C....

    My ADD mind goes everywhere. And 311 keeps it focused.

    P.... C....

    Amen man. Amen.

    P.... C....

    Pursley Catering Yeah I met this beautiful and really cool chick who showed me this song and 311s new stuff. It's great for getting me to relax and chill. Good for driving too.
