Crazy

I'm not happy here
Can't you see something different
Then this side of me?
Can you get through?
Can you hear what they say about me?
do you think it's true?
Did they tell you about
the time that I lost my head?
Did they show you the pictures
of my life that I want dead?
Do you really think I've gone crazy?
Do you really think this is me?
I don't know how to tell you
I've made a mistake
I don't know how to convince you
That I'm not crazy
Just look deeper, inside of me
And maybe then, you will see
That you're just the same
Same as me
And if you open up
You can see that you're the one
Who's gone crazy
Are you satisfied here?
Is there more to see then
this perfect picture place?
Do you get it now?
Do you see what's been erased?
Do you remember that time
when you drove off the edge?
When you swore up and down,
that you should be dead
Do you realize now,
what you've become?
Is this creature more to you
than just fun?
I don't know how to control it
I don't think you do too
I can't seem to make you see
That you're driving me crazy
Just look deeper, inside of me
And maybe then, you will see
That you're just the same
Same as me
And if you open up
You can see that you're the one
Who's gone crazy
So just look deeper
inside of you
And try and see what
you put me through
And if you open it up
hopefully you will see
That all this time
You've been crazy
