Gnarls Barkley [Rap]

[Intro]
Pump up the peculiar
While I yell unique
Aaaaah, let me show you right here
Heeeeeeey, Aaaahaaaaahaaa
Ooooh, yeah, yeah, yeah

[Verse]
I'm well on my way
I'm almost everything
And this is my day
You make me want to say

[Hook]
I'm freeee! Look at me!
Behold everything I'm allowed to see
Freeee,! Come and see
Na, na, na, na, na na na

[Verse]
The shapeless, formless, heart is enormous
Bore this, I've worn this, no never what the norm is
Come hear this, it's fearless
Contrast, colour, prisms, so warmin'
Listen and love it

[Hook #2]
I'm freeee! Look at me!
Freedom in hi-fidelity
Freeee! come and see
Na, na, na, na, na na na

[Verse]
What you waitin' on?
I won't ask your, passion, smilin', laughin'
Yieldin', feelin', helpin', healin'
Introduce your neighbour to your saviour

[Hook #3]
I'm freeee! Look at me!
Freedom in hi-fidelity
Freeee!
Na, na, na, na, na na na

I remember when I remember
I remember when I lost my mind
There was something so
pleasant about that Place
Even your emotions
have an echo
in so much space
And when you're out there
Without care
Yeah I was out of touch
But it wasn't because
I didn't know enough
I just knew too much
Does that make me crazy
Does that make me crazy
Does that make me crazy
Possibly
And I hope that you are
having the time of your life
But think twice
That's my only advice
Come on now
who do you who do you
who do you
who do you think you are
Ha ha ha bless your soul
You really think
you're in control
Well I think you're crazy
I think you're crazy
I think you're crazy
Just like me
My heroes had the heart
To lose their lives
out on a limb
And all I remember Is thinking
I want to be like them
Ever since
I was little ever since
I was little oh
it looked like fun
And it's no coincidence
I've come
And I can die when I'm done
But maybe I'm crazy
Maybe you're crazy
Maybe we're crazy
Probably

I packed a few of my belongings
Left the life that I was living
Just some memories of it
Mostly the ones I can't forget

Whenever you need me I'll be here
Until then my dear
I'm going, I'm going, I'm going there
Don't ask me to make time
To travel back and forth
Let nature take it's course
Maybe I'm open from all this ocean air
And if it weren't for you I'd be without a care
Setting sail to St. Elsewhere

Anywhere you sit you can see the sun
Unfortunately on this island I'm the only one
Same rules apply on a rainy day
And it's not such a pretty place to be
It just rains, and rains, and rains on me
Send a simple side, I can understand
Then a flower grew out that sand
Before you knew it, I was back out on that sea
Now I don't mind it so much
Because as long as I'm not there
Anywhere is St. Elsewhere

Way over yonder there is new frontier
Would it be so hard for you to come and visit me here?
I understand
Would you just send me a message in a bottle then baby?
St. Elsewhere

Beautiful girl, lovely dress,
High school smiles, oh yes,
Beautiful girl, lovely dress,
Where she is now I can only guess.

Cuz its gone daddy gone,
The love is gone.
Cuz its gone daddy gone,
The love is gone.
Cuz its gone daddy gone,
The love is gone.
Cuz its gone daddy gone,
The love is gone away.

When I see you,
Eyes will turn blue,
When I see you,
A thousand eyes turning blue.

Cuz its gone daddy gone,
The love is gone.
Cuz its gone daddy gone,
The love is gone.
Cuz its gone daddy gone,
The love is gone.
Cuz its gone daddy gone,
The love is gone away.

I can tell by the way that you,
Switch and walk,
I can see by the way,
That you baby talk.
I know by the way that you,
Treat your man.
I can love you baby, 'til it's a crying.

Cuz its gone daddy gone,
The love is gone.
Cuz its gone daddy gone,
The love is gone.
Cuz its gone daddy gone,
The love is gone.
Cuz its gone daddy gone,
The love is gone away.

Beautiful girl, lovely dress,
15 miles, oh yes,
Beautiful girl, lovely dress,
Where she is now I can only guess.

Cuz its gone daddy gone,
The love is gone.
Cuz its gone daddy gone,
The love is gone.
Cuz its gone daddy gone,
The love is gone.
Cuz its gone daddy gone,
The love is gone away

[Verse]
What did you do? What did you say?
Did you walk - or did you run away?
Where are you now? Where have you been?
Did you go alone - or did you bring a friend?

[Hook #1]
I need to know this - cause I notice when you're smilin'
Out in the sun havin' fun and you're feelin' free
And I can tell you know how hard this life can be
But you keep on smilin' for me

[Verse]
What went right? What went wrong?
Was it the story - or was it the song?
Was it overnight - or did it take you long?
Was knowing your weakness what made you strong?

[Hook #2]
Or all the above - oh how I love to see you smilin'
And oh yeah - take a little pain just in case
You need something warm to embrace
To help you put on a smilin' face
Hey, put on a smilin' face

[Bridge]
Don't you go off into the new day with any doubt
Here's a summary of somethin' that you could smile about:
Say for instance, my girlfriend she bugs me all the time
But the irony of it all is that she loves me all the time

[Hook #3]
I want to be you - whenever I see you smilin'
Cause it's easily one of the hardest things to do
Your worries and fears become your friends
And they end up smilin' at you
Put on a smilin' face

I've got a monster in my closet
Someone's underneath my bed
The wind's knocking at my window
I'd kill it but it's already dead

It waits till the midnight hour to come
To torture me for the wrong i've done
it just sits there and stares me
And it won't let me get any sleep

<i>[Repeat Hook]</i>

At first I was scared when
I looked at his eyes
But now that I know him I'm not that surprised
I'm just waiting on the sun to rise
Oh how I wish that old sun would rise

<i>[Repeat Hook]</i>

I used to wonder why he looked familiar
Then I realized it was a mirror
And now it is plain to see,
The whole time the monster was me

<i>[Repeat Hook]</i>

Yeah Mmm The living dead
Only thing that could bring it back alive, Woman
Is some good good head
(Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha)

All I want is your understanding,
Ash in the small light of affections.
Why is this my life?
Is almost everybodies question.

And I've tried,
Everything but suicide,
But its crossed my mind.

I prefer peace,
Wouldn't have to have one worldy possesion,
But essentially I'm an animal,
So just what do I do with all the aggresion?

Well I've tried,
Everything but suicide,
But it's crossed my mind.

Life is a one way street and,
If you could paint it,
I'd draw myself going in the right direction,
So I go all the way,
Like I really really know but the truth is,
I'm only guessing.

And I've tried,
Everything but suicide,
Ooh but it's crossed my mind...

Just a thought.

It's even dark in the day time,
It's not just good, it's great depression
When I was lost I even found myself,
Looking in the guns direction.

And so I've tried
Everything but suicide
But yes, it's crossed my mind...

But I'm fine.

I, I, I, I, I, I
Know how to transorm
I transform
I transform
I'm a transformer
I, I, I, I, I, I
Know how to transorm
I transform
(I can do it)
I'll transform
(I can do it)
I'm a transformer

I'm just being myself
Plus I gotta be me too
Silly of me to think that
I couldn't bring myself to be you
Ah but behold there is benevolence
Behind this but I don't stare enough
Be careful 'cause I'll kill you
With kindness
That's why I'm dressed quite neatly
'Cause it's easy and discreetly they seek me
And when they reach me and see me they
Believe me completely
I'm a real live wire I ain't lying
If it's between me and you I ain't dying
I can transform, I can transform,
I can transform
Without even trying wow

I, I, I, I, I, I
Know how to transorm
I transform
I transform
I'm a transformer
I, I, I, I, I, I
Know how to transorm
I transform
I'll transform
I'm a transformer

Now I'm someone else
Now someone can be me too
Behold the beautiful and bold everyday I
Wake up to be new
Oh but it's simple but they still
Can understand why
I think I can, I think I can,
I think I can oh can I?
I'm a microchip off the old block
You know not but I was a robot
And I sold rock and you would get
For sho shoot with a gold
Glock boy I rode pac
Something that you won't see again
What the hell might as well be a friend
I can transform, I can transform,
No telling who I will have to
Be again.

I, I, I, I, I, I
Know how to transorm
I transform
I transform
I'm a transformer
I, I, I, I, I, I
Know how to transorm
I transform
I'll transform
I'm a transformer

[Verse 1]

Basically I'm complicated
I have a hard time taking the easy way
I wouldn't call it sketchophrenic
But I'll be at least be two people today
If that's ok
And I can go on and on and on
But who cares?

It's deep how you can be so shallow
And I'm afraid cause I have no fear
And I didn't believe in magic
Until I watched you disappear
I wish you were here
And I can go on and on and on
But who cares?

You see everybody is somebody
But nobody wants to be themselves
And if I ever wanted to understand it
I have to talk to someone else
Cause every little bit helps
And I can go on and on and on
But who cares?

It feels like the surreal life
But it's still nice wish I can live twice
And I still might if these ones here right
I see a little light eventhough it's still night
And I can go on and on and on
But who cares?

I'm on the line.
I'm on the line.
Once I clean my mirror.
I'm a be feeling fine.
Trying to get there is,
all that's on my mind.
When I'm on the line.

Even though I run my race,
With a smile on my face.
It ain't easy, naw it ain't.
Feels like the life of the party.
But it's all in your mind,
On the line.

I'm on the line.
I'm on the line.
Once I clean my mirror.
I'm a be feeling fine.
Even when you're falling,
Just pretend you're flying.
When ya on the line.

I'm with everybody but I'm still alone,
Just look down, that's my,
line your standing on.
Let's keep it friendly and we'll be just fine.
But don't cross that line!

Wake up, wake up, wake up,
Don't
Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up,
Ah ha
Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up,

It's naughty
Very naughty
Necrophilia
Without a care
I'm compassionate about killing her
I'd have my way with what's left of the will in her
Cosmopolitans and cocaine and an occasional pill in her
When she spoke
I saw a spark
But it was dark so
I drove her home
When she died
Sexy suicide
Sweet nothings for the Nam
You feel where I'm coming from
Have no fear
Everything's is fine
My girl parties
All the time

Did you hear what I said
With this ring I do wed
A body in my bed
She was cool when I met her
But I think I like her better
Dead

Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
Hahahaha

The production is progressive
But the reason is retro
The cause of cold blooded murder
I named it neo-necro
I whisper in her ear
To hear an echo
Echo, co, co
I keep her
It's cheaper
I love too much to let go
We discussed over dinner how she would die
Before the day was done
So I caught just in time to have a little fun
And you could use a little sun
So scream and holler
Run and play
Wish you could die
Another day

Come back to see this house
Done what I could to revive
My soft side survived
Man
Thought you was alright
And she was alive

Hahahahaha
Hahahahaha

I, I, I, I can paint a picture with a pen
But a song will only scratch the skin
And there are still places I haven't been
Because I know what's in there
Is already in the air
Oh yeah
There's a storm on the way
There's a storm on the way
All right
There's a storm on the way, yeah
Uh huh
And it's coming no matter what I say
Oh

Here I come, I come, I come, I come

Hey, hey, hey
There's truth in the thunder
Love in the lightning
The feeling is frightening
But isn't it exciting
I'm something like stormy weather
If I weren't we'd never
Huddle together
Do I have to tell ya
That I'm also the sunlight
That shines shortly after
I just rain 'cause I have to
On to other chapter
I wish you lots of laughter
Till the next time you see me
Just remember you need me
I'm the storm coming, coming, coming

So here I come, I come, I come, I come
Well come on!
Here I come, I come, I come, I come
Ah come on!

Run towards the hills
To avoid the high floods
I can do a dance that'll make the sky cry blood
Skills provoking
Seals to be broken open
All that's left to do is try my love
Woah

An I'm singing in the cyclone
I'm writing a raging sea searching
For a sign of the times
Is it safe to say it's me
Listen to our lives
The wind will whisper the way it is
I'm going to happen what a lovely day it is

Don't ask why
Just live
And
Die

<i>[Verse]</i>
All work and no play
That's the way it is, ain't it?
There's a rhythm deep inside of you
And you must get reacquainted

<i>[Hook]</i>
When was the last time you danced?
When was the last time you danced?
Well come rock with me baby
Dance with me darling
Step with me sweetheart
The world is watching

<i>[Verse]</i>
Under an endless sky
Wish I could fly away forever (and ever)
And the poetry is so pure
When we are on the floor together (it's been a long time)

<i>[Hook]</i>

<i>[Bridge]</i>
Don't deny me any further
Let me have my way
Oooh, come closer, yeah
Let's dance the night away

<i>[Hook]</i>

[Verse 1]

I remember when I remember
I remember when I lost my mind
There was something
so pleasant about that PLACE
Even your emotions had an echo
In so much space
And when you're out there
Without care
Yeah I was out of touch
But it wasn't because
I didn't know enough
I just knew too much
Does that make me crazy
Does that make me crazy
Does that make me crazy
Possibly
And I hope that you are having
the time of your life
But think twice
that's my only advice
Come on now
who do you who do you
who do you
who do you think you are
Ha ha ha bless your soul
You really think you're in control
Well I think you're crazy
I think you're crazy
I think you're crazy
Just like me
My heroes had the
heart to LIVE their
lives out on a limb
And all I remember is thinking
I want to be like them
Ever since I was little
ever since I was little
it looked like fun
And it's no coincidence
I've come
And I can die when I'm done
Maybe I'm crazy
Maybe you're crazy
Maybe we're crazy
Probably

Got some bad news this morning Which en turn made my day When this someone spoke I listened All of a sudden has less and less to say Oooo how could this be All this time I’ve lived vicariously Who’s gonna save my soul now Who’s gonna save my soul now How will my story ever be told now How will my story be told now Made me feel like somebody …huh Like somebody else Although he was imitated often It felt like I was being myself Is it a shame that someone else’s song Was totally and completely depended on Who’s gonna save my soul now Who’s gonna save my soul now I wonder if I’ll live grow old now Getting high cause I feel so low down And maybe it’s a little selfish All I have is the memory Yet I never stopped to wonder Was it possible you hurtin’ worse than me Still my hunger turns to greed Cause what about what I need And Ooooo Who’s gonna save my soul now Whooooo’s gon save my soul now Oooo I know I’m out of control now hoohooo Tired enough to lay my own soul down

I’ve seen it with my own eyes How we’re gettin’ otherwise Without the luxury of leavin’ The touch and feeling of free is Untangible technically Something you’ve got to believe in Connect the cause and effect One foot in front of the next This is the start of a journey. And my mind is already gone And though there are other unknowns Somehow this doesn’t concern me. And you can stand right there if you want But I’m going on And I’m prepared to go it alone I’m going on To a place in the sun that’s nice and warm I’m going on And I’m sure they’ll have a place for you too oohoohoo Anyone that needs what they want, and doesn’t want what they need I want nothing to do with And to do what I want And to do what I please Is first of my to-do list But every once in a while I think about her smile One of the few things I do miss But baby I‘ve to go Baby I’ve got to know Baby I’ve got to prove it And I’ll see you when you get there But I’m going on And I’m prepared to go it alone I’m going on May my love lift you up to the place you belong I’m going on And I promise I’ll be waiting for you oohoohoo

Run Lyrics by Gnarls Barkley

Yeah its still the same
Can’t you feel the pain
When the needle hits the vein
Ain’t nothing like the real thing
I’ve seen it once before
And oh it’s something else
Good god

Cool breeze come on in
Sunshine come on down
These are the tear drops of the clown
Circus is coming to town
All I’m saying is sometimes I’m more scared of myself
You better
move
I said
move

Runaway
Runaway
Run children
Run for your life
Runaway
Runaway
Run children
Here it comes
I said run
Alright

Yeah I’m on the run
See where I’m coming from
When you see me coming run
Before you see what I’m running from
No time for question asking time is passing by
Alright

You can’t win child
We’ve all tried to
You’ve been lied to
It’s all ready inside you
Either you run right now
Or you best get ready to die
You better
move
I said
move

Runaway
Runaway
Run children
Run for your life
Runaway
Runaway
Run children
Ooh
Here it comes
I Said run

Hurry little children
Run this way
I have got a beast at bay
La la la la la la la

La la la la la la la
La la la la l a
La la la la l a
Runaway
runaway
Run children
run for your life
runaway
runaway
run children
here it comes
said run

I've got a secret
Something I thought maybe I could do
But I can't now, can I?
Lucky, lucky you

Did you know I could be,
Or would be,
Killer
If suddenly I should be
Or would be,
Killer

Hurt, hurt people
This is all the way now
Oh I've been entered by evil
So someone best love me right now

Because I could be,
Or would be,
Killer
Suddenly I should be,
Or would be,
Killer

Now don't you dare me
Or we will dance
High up balancing ballet
So I may still get my chance

Eyes filled with fire
Wish I was a better liar
It hurts when it's happening, and so I cried

The winter is even colder
I guess that I could have told ya
That I am safe and warm from the hell inside

[Chorus]
Come on!
Take me!
Come on!
Make me!
I am an open book

The drum beat of my heart is tribal
Oh, the sweet sound of survival
Shall serenade this horse forever more

The sun would have to be frozen
For anything out there opposin'
That should be left in it's own blood on the jungle floor

[Chorus]
Come on!
Fight me!
Come on!
Strike me!
I am an open book, an open book

When I sing a song of peace
It soothes a savage beast
Even it understands that I understand, at least

So you mortals must keep this in mind
This is the way I'm designed
And I am no power so I'll only die one time

[Chorus]
Come on!
Kill me!
You heard!
Kill me!
I am an open book, an open book

Come on!
Come on!

[Cee-Lo]
I don't have any friends at all
Cause I have nothin' in common with y'all
So who's gonna catch me if I fall?
My back's always against the wall
I don't have anything to say
I want everything to go my way
Shut up mom! It is not OK
I'm alone almost everyday

[Chorus]
But it's cool (it's cool)
It could be better (could be better)
I don't care... (I don't care)
Whatever (whatever) Hold up my man
La la la la lah-lah-lah, whatever [x3]
La la la la lah-lah-lah

[Cee-Lo]
Talk to my counselor 'bout how I feel
Everyone agrees I could use some help
I love my girl more, than I love myself
But she's goin' steady with someone else
I don't know what else to do
Said fuck me? Well fuck you too!
I know it sounds real sad but true
Bein' alone is nothin' new

[Chorus]
But it's cool (it's cool)
It could be better (could be better)
I don't care... (I don't care)
Whatever (whatever) Whatever bitch!

It’s cool being the only one But it’s lonely I could have fallen in the stove a thousand times before if only someone had know me They say there’s someone for everyone Oh plus the word will be never done When all you need is to be meet half way but nobody tries Don’t be surprised Don’t be surprised Don’t be surprised There are hills and mountains between us Always something to get over Needless to say it’s a wonderful day I just noticed how nice it was to know ya Oh but be ready to sacrifice If you love him you should tell him twice Because when everything that’s alive ultimately dies Oh lord Don’t be surprised Don’t be surprised Don’t be surprised Somebody’s watchin Maybe you want em to see you But with your regrets and secrets you don’t really want them to be you Well you can make believe I’m that And for now I’ll be just fine But when the child grows up to have more than just your eyes Don’t be surprised Don’t be surprised Don’t be surprised Now the ending to every story is most enchanting Now whether its heaven or hell I wear it well Please forgive me for rambling I just wanted ya’ll To know that I don’t know it all So when that big o’l smile ends up Being just a disguise Don’t be surprised Don’t be surprised Oh lord Don’t be surprised Ooh oh lord Don’t be surprised I said don’t be don’t be surprised There’s nothing left in here that’s surprising baby prising baby…….

This could be one of those days
That we must go our separate ways.
Scared for you to be out of my sight,
Because you never know, you might.

And I carry this
It's heavy.
And I miss you
Already...

You were perfect babe.

My time will come
Yours too.
I'll gladly go before you.

I hope you live forever,
Or maybe we can go together.

It would be perfect baby.

And I carry this,
It's heavy.
And I miss you
Already...

Up, up and away she goes
Now I know that I know she knows
Could one live a lie?
Well neither will I
If she still try to try
But remarkably, my son,
All my work is done.
Wouldn't surprise me to see her ghost
She would like me to know she knows

And I'm almost sure
I was absolutely nothing before
Now I'm so, so much more
The one word that describes the past
I'm pretty much possessed
We are the reason, I suppose
And we've spoken so I know she knows

There was one to sacrifice
When you live more than twice
Or when I bet it's nice
Gonna be just like you
I'm giving my life, too
No other woman would wear your clothes
And it goes without saying she knows
She knows

<i>[Intro: Cee-Lo]</i>
Whoahh-ohhhhhhh
YEAHHHHHHH!
I love, Mary! (I love Mary)
Blind Mary, marry me (marry me)
I love, Mary! (la lah lah)

<i>[Cee-Lo]</i>
She has never seen the sunshine (sunshine)
Yet she's getting along just fine (fine)
She's not staying, she's just passing through (through-ooh-ooeooh-ooh)
Hey, do you mind if I follow you?
Youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

<i>[Chorus: Cee-Lo]</i>
I love, Mary! (I love Mary)
Blind Mary, marry me (marry me)
I love, Mary! (la la lah)
Yeaaaahhhhhhhhhh

<i>[Cee-Lo]</i>
I heard a voice say catch me if you can
Before you know it I was holding her hand
It's harder to imagine than understand
How she knows exactly who I am
Yeaaaahhhhhhhhhh

<i>[Chorus]</i>

<i>[Cee-Lo]</i>
She's my friend, she doesn't judge me
She has no idea I'm ugly
So I've absolutely nothing to hide
Because I'm so much prettier inside
Yeaaaahhhhhhhhhh

<i>[Chorus]</i>

Now my neighbor likes where I stay
But doesn't, know, the price that I pay
My neighbor! My neighbor!
My neighbor... Wants what he sees
My neighbor! My neighbor!
My neighbor... Thinks he wants to be me
But he'll never be

From out my window, seems just fine
But in his mind, again his world is far from kind
So I invited him over, could this make a new friend
But once I got to know ya, wish I never let you in

Now my neighbor likes my clothes
But hadn't seen me with my scars exposed
My neighbor! My neighbor!
My neighbor, oh dissatisfied
My neighbor!
My neighbor's, behavior... Is unjustified
I'm sick and tired

I don't know, if he lives all alone
But if you're scared of the darkness best leave the lights on
I had a talk with my neighbor
Say it simple and plain
I guess, he understood me
He never came back again

Now my neighbor, likes my car
But no matter where you go, there you are...

<i>[Cee-Lo]</i>
Now I can sing you the storyline
And if you like my story fine
But ain't none of the glory mine
See my life was a lonely one
And I was still momma's only son
With no idea what I'm gon' become
And I didn't have long to know
That you don't have to be grown to go
I could have died so long befo'
Then I finally saw the sign
And I made it on down the line
One step at a time

<i>[Chorus]</i>
I feel better!
I can smile at it now, I feel better
Ohhhh, better!
And even a little is still better
Oh, have mercy on me

<i>[Cee-Lo]</i>
Ohhh it's probably plain to see
That I got a whole lot of pain in me
And it will always remain in me
So cold, it's a cryin shame
Yet here I am, tryin again
Cause I refuse to die in vain
The circumstances put soul in me
And there ain't no holdin me
I've got a heart made of gold in me
Hah, can you believe this is where I've been?
And when adversity comes again
I'll deal with it then

<i>[Chorus]</i>
I feel better!
I can laugh at it now, I feel better, heh heh
Ohhhh, better!
And even a little is still better
Oh, have mercy on me-heeeeeeee

<i>[Cee-Lo]</i>
Ah-ahhh-hahhh-ah yeahhh
Mmmmmmmmmm, ohhhhhhh-oh-ohhhh!

I said everything's fine, you can take your time
What would be on your mind, if you knew you was dyin
I would wanna just feel this ah-one more time
I said everything's fine, take yo' time
What would be on your mind, if you knew you was dyin
I would wanna just feel this ah-one more time
I wanna thank you morning sun
I wanna thank you lowly dirt
Now I know I'm not the only one
I, I wanna thank you friendly ghost
When all the calls were close
It seems like you cared the most
I, I wanna thank you Mom and Dad
For hurtin me so bad
But you're the best I ever had
I, I wanna thank you... <i>[fades]</i>

I remember when I remember
I remember when I lost my mind
There was something so
pleasant about that Place
Even your emotions
have an echo
in so much space
And when you're out there
Without care
Yeah I was out of touch
But it wasn't because
I didn't know enough
I just knew too much
Does that make me crazy
Does that make me crazy
Does that make me crazy
Possibly
And I hope that you are
having the time of your life
But think twice
That's my only advice
Come on now
who do you who do you
who do you
who do you think you are
Ha ha ha bless your soul
You really think
you're in control
Well I think you're crazy
I think you're crazy
I think you're crazy
Just like me
My heroes had the heart
To lose their lives
out on a limb
And all I remember Is thinking
I want to be like them
Ever since
I was little ever since
I was little oh
it looked like fun
And it's no coincidence
I've come
And I can die when I'm done
But maybe I'm crazy
Maybe you're crazy
Maybe we're crazy
Probably
