[Verse 1]
I know I'm a little erratic
And sometimes my chickens are chasing my rabbits
Do you think you can stand it?
Do I have the right to stand here and demand it?

[Pre Chorus]
And just like you the paranoia keeps me up
At night so late but...

[Chorus]
If you believe in desperate songs
I promise that one day, I'll learn how to write them
And then you and me can be free
As long as we learn all our desperate songs

[Verse 2]
Well, I know I'm a little bit spastic
When I built these castles with paper and plastic
You don't look like you can stand it
Yeah, I have the right to stand here and demand it

[Pre Chorus]
And just like you the softest earthquakes shake me out
Of bed at midnight
[Chorus]
And if you believe in desperate songs
I promise that one day I'll learn how to write them
And then you and me can be free
As long as we learn all our desperate songs

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
Do you remember the panic
That I was felt when the small was gigantic

[Pre Chorus]
And just like you the heavy metal keeps me up
At night so late but

[Chorus]
If you believe in desperate songs
I promise that one day I'll learn how to write them
And then you and me can be free
As long as we learn all our desperate songs
