Lyrics

I know I'm a little erratic and sometimes my chickens are chasing my rabbits

I acknowledge my erratic behavior, and sometimes my problems multiply like chickens chasing rabbits.

Do you think you can stand it? I don't have the right to stand here and demand it

Do you think you can tolerate it? I don't have the right to demand your acceptance.


And just like you the paranoia keeps me up at night so late but

Similar to you, paranoia keeps me awake late at night.


If you believe in desperate songs, I promise that one day I'll learn how to write them

If you believe in songs that express desperation, I assure you that one day I'll learn to write them.

And then you and me can be free, as long as we learn all our desperate songs

We can be liberated if we learn to express ourselves through desperate songs.


I know I'm a little bit spastic, but I build my castles with paper and plastic

Although I may be a bit spastic, I construct my dreams with fragile materials.

You don't look like you can stand it, but when I'm done you'll say superfantastic

You may not initially appreciate it, but when I'm finished, you'll find it superb and fantastic.


And just like you the softest earthquakes shake me out of bed at midnight

Similar to you, even the slightest disturbances shake me awake at midnight.


And if you believe in desperate songs, I promise that one day I'll learn how to write them

If you have faith in songs born out of desperation, I promise to master the art of creating them.

And then you and me can be free, as long as we learn all our desperate songs

Our freedom is possible if we learn to embrace and express our desperate songs.


Do you remember the panic

Recall the intense panic that both of us experienced when small issues seemed enormous.

That you and I felt when the small was gigantic

Reflecting on the anxiety we felt when minor problems appeared colossal.


And just like you the heavy metal keeps me up at night so late but

Similar to you, heavy metal music keeps me awake late at night.


If you believe in desperate songs, I promise that one day I'll learn how to write them

Believe in the power of desperate songs, and I commit to mastering the skill of composing them.

And then you and me can be free, as long as we learn all our desperate songs

Our freedom is achievable if we collectively learn to embrace and express our desperate songs.
