lyrics

This didn’t turn out
Quite the way I thought it would
This is not the life I was hoping for
What I was hoping for
Was something a little bit better
Something grander, something more
I think about the time
I was on that stretch of highway
And my car got run off the road
It was then and there everything changed
It was then and there I saw my life explode

This is me, this is who I am, this is how I feel
This is my story, this is my world and none of it is real

Sometimes I imagine I slipped through a crack
Into an alternate dimension
Things were the sort of the same and sort of not
It was a place outside my comprehension
And in this place things seemed slightly off
In a way almost imperceptible
And I didn’t get it at first, didn’t see the change
It just became what was acceptable

What is it like to be in my head
What is it like to feel what I feel
I could draw you a graphic novel
But to you it would never seem real

Time goes by in the way time goes by
And I grew up and grew older
And the love of my life she got away from me
And the world got a lot colder
And I came to realize just what had happened
I had broken through by osmosis
You can say I’m crazy
You can say I’m nuts
You can say it’s my psychosis
