Song To Go Insane To
[Verse 1]
Only after being with you do I know the pain of being alone
But I promise that I can still function if you leave me out here on my own
Just leave me three drops of sugar sap, enough to keep me fed
Brush petals out of your hair, I swear I’m not hiding in your head

[Verse 2]
My wings are thinner than the paper of each poem that you write
I’m out of my natural habitat, you’re a born-and-raised suburbanite
Keep me on your shoulder at all times for my health and well-being
Your neighbors laugh and gossip ‘cause it’s not me that they’re seeing

[Chorus]
Give mе a thought to go insane to
Flush my psyche down the drain to
Ovеr you
Over you

‘Cause I break without your touch
You say you need me way too much
But is that true?
Is that true?

And I know I would enjoy a little break from paranoia
You’d think God would spare a boy a
Little peace of mind
But here’s a thought to go insane to
Flush my psyche down the drain to
I’m so in love with you

[Verse 3]
I ventured out one afternoon, don’t worry 'bout what I brought back
Though I know the mess I made gave you a bit of a heart attack
I returned and my little footsteps blew all your candles out
But right before sleep, we can go over what you’re so worried about

[Verse 4]
All your friends are frightened ‘cause they say I’ve ruined their garden
After last week’s backyard brunch I chose not to take part in
Now their hydrangeas wither as I slither quietly across their dirt
You made them lock their dogs inside so I would not get hurt

[Chorus]
Give me a thought to go insane to
Flush my psyche down the drain to
Over you
Over you

‘Cause I break without your touch
You say you need me way too much
But is that true?
Is that true?
And I know I would enjoy a little break from paranoia
You’d think God would spare a boy a
Little peace of mind

But here’s a thought to go insane to
Flush my psyche down the drain to
I’m so in love with you

[Bridge]
If they say I don’t exist, come crying to me
We’re all that matters
My life is tied to yours, so don’t come lying to me
If you forget my name in conversations

So what if I start to appall you?
Ignore the blood splatters
When you told me you wanted it all, you
Understood the implications

[Chorus]
So I'll give you a song to go insane to
Flush your psyche down the drain to
All for you
All for you

‘Cause I break without your touch
You say I need you way too much
And that’s not true
That’s not true
And I know you would enjoy a little break from paranoia
But I will not spare a boy a
Little peace of mind

Here’s a song to go insane to
And drown out all of your brain to
I’m so in love with you!
Yeah, boy, I’m so in love with you!
Woah! I’m so in love with you!
