I feel so far away

They won't let me concentrate

These things that exist inside my brain

You ask how I am today

I'll shake my head and say

Sorry, try again another day

My world is crumbling softly

I'll take some aspirin and coffee

My thoughts seem so ungodly

I will remember you fondly

I will put to rest my childish expectations

I will put to test my anxious anticipation

Let go, if I must, of my maniacal imagination

Ashes turn to dust in a moment of hesitation

Curse all these fairy tales

They're putting dreams in my head

Telling me that there's a happy end

But I've got my own tale to tell

A book that'll never sell

But I'll write the end myself

Da-n-da da da da-da

Da-n-da da da da daaa

I'll never say goodbye to my childish expectations

Think I'm starting to like this anxious anticipation

Don't say it's time to let go

Because I'm not letting go
