Lyrics

[Verse 1]
What a wonderful hesitation
Who would bear to feel sorry for me?
Dropped another pill just to calm me
Collapsed to my knees and fell fast into sleep
[Verse 2]
And there I was drifting
Way out into the sunshine
Expected to crash, but I'm tied to a string
Look at me, I'm a tangled puppet
I might be a mess, but I sure can survive
[Verse 3]
Find myself awake, countin' sad days
1, 2, 3, that's too many for me
Dropped another pill just to find me
I reached for my hand, but it was already there
[Verse 4]
Then I stop believing
That I fell out of a tiny raindrop
That lost its way when it decided to roam
Chasin' me was a hungry dweller
But I had escaped it by pretending to die
[Verse 5]
Come follow me, you won't expect the illusion
You'll see it's my imagination
Hand me your eyes
I will put them in front of a line
[Verse 6]
You'll see a little better
You'll see a little better
[Verse 7]
What a wonderful destination
Where I am now, I can no longer see
Dropped another pill just to kill me
Collapsed to my knees and fell fast into sleep
[Verse 8]
There was and there was
And there I was drifting
Way out into the sunshine
Expected to crash, but I'm tied to a string
Look at me, I'm a tangled puppet
I might be a mess, but I sure can survive
But I had escaped it by pretending to die
