Crazy Man Crazy
The Comets Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴
Balance on the edge of feeling what's real
Settle back, now it's time for a ride
It was fine last time, so let's go again
It's been a bit crazy inside my head
Choosing not to feel instead of getting better
Wish I could deal with all of this mess
Existential dread in front of me
Come on down to Earth once more
But for now I'm wound and it's time to spiral out
Cause maybe I'll find the answer once more
Oh god, is it time?
Should I find out what it's like to fly?
Cause it's been a bit crazy inside my head
Choosing not to feel instead of getting better
Wish I could deal with all of this mess
Existential dread in front of me
Cause it's been a bit crazy inside of my head
I feel alive, I don't want to be better
I don't wanna go, but I just want to leave
I feel alive, don't want to be better
Oh god, is it time?
Should I find out what it's like to fly?
Cause I'm feeling tired
Can't stand the feeling of nothing any more
Why can't this just be gone
Cause every day is just another round and around and around and around
It's been a bit crazy inside my head
Choosing not to feel instead of getting better
Wish I could deal with all of this mess
Existential dread in front of me
Cause it's been a bit crazy inside of my head
I feel alive, I don't want to be better
I don't wanna go, but I just want to leave
I feel alive, don't want to be better
