Crazy
Navigating the Abyss of Emotion: Joe Satriani's Musical Journey
Lyrics
I feel like going out for a drive
I feel an urge to go for a drive.
Don't know if I'll make it back alive
Uncertainty about returning alive from the drive.
My head's so heavy, my soul is black
Feeling burdened and spiritually dark.
Lookin' like something that the cat brought back
Appearance resembling something brought back by a cat, possibly chaotic or disheveled.
I'm goin' crazy
Expressing a sense of going insane.
But that's alright
Despite the craziness, it's accepted or tolerated.
Outside, lookin' for something to do
Searching for something to do outdoors.
Walkin' the streets, everybody looks like you
Observing that everyone looks similar, possibly reflecting inner turmoil.
When you can't find love, you can feed your head
When love is absent, seeking solace in intellectual pursuits or distractions.
But you can't survive when your brain is dead
The inability to survive when one's mind is numb or lifeless.
I'm goin' crazy
Reiterating the feeling of going crazy.
But that's alright
Acceptance of the insanity.
I'm goin' crazy
Repetition of the acknowledgment of going crazy.
I think you better hold on tight
Suggesting the need to hold on tightly amidst the madness.
Give it to me
Expression of desire or demand for something.
I'm goin' crazy
Reiteration of the feeling of going crazy.
Yesterday you and I were two
Reflection on a past time when "you and I" existed.
Now your gone, I'm all black and blue
Feeling emotionally bruised and battered after the departure of the other person.
Don't know why, could be your no good
Uncertain about the reason, speculating that the other person may not be good.
If I could turn back the hands of time you know I would
Expressing a desire to reverse the passage of time.
Think it's strange thinking these thoughts out loud
Considering thoughts aloud and finding them strange.
Better keep movin', blend in with the crowd
Advising oneself to keep moving and blend in with the crowd to avoid introspection.
I can't believe I'm acting like a child
Acknowledging childish behavior.
One thing I know your driving me wild
Attributing wild emotions to the influence of the other person.
I'm goin' crazy
Reiteration of the feeling of going crazy.
But that's alright
Acceptance of the craziness.
I'm goin' crazy
Repetition of the acknowledgment of going crazy.
I think it's going to be a long, long night
Anticipating a long and difficult night.
Give it to me
Expression of desire or demand for something.
I'm goin' crazy
Reiteration of the feeling of going crazy.
I'm goin' crazy
Repetition emphasizing the state of going crazy.
I'm goin' crazy
Continued emphasis on the state of going crazy.
I'm goin' crazy
Repetition emphasizing the state of going crazy.
Crazy
Final declaration of going crazy.
