lyrics

I wanna go insane
Lock me in a room with only a piano
Tell all the logical folks to leave me be
And simplify my reality
Fill up my vase with two big rocks
My love for music and broken clocks

There’s sixty million little things
But doing more won’t give you wings
Don’t live a lie that sucks you dry
Jump out of the hamster wheel
And actually let yourself feel

A wise woman said
Don’t be caught dead
While you’re still alive
Which wrinkles are deeper on your face
The crows feet
Or the train tracks between your eyes

I think I’ve gone insane
I locked myself in a room with only a piano
Tell all the logical folks knockin’ at my door
That I don’t care anymore
Filled up my vase with two big rocks
My love for music and my love for you
