When I think about it
I know that it sounds insane
I know that it is all a delusion
But I don't know what to do
Goddamn love it makes me crazy
Bashes in my head like a contusion
The world that I live in
It defies physics
It defies time and space
It lives up here
Deep inside my head
An endlessly evolving database
That's my problem
I know the truth
I see the light
But still I want to bend it to my will
Want to look away
But I know I can't
It's like a demon face in the windowsill
Out damned spot
Out I say
One, two
Why then it's time to do it
Why do I do this
I always ask myself
Why am I compelled to fantasize
Is there really nothing else
No place for me to go
No singer for me to harmonize
