You have to be a little insane to live life extraordinary.


Would you hate me
If I was just a little bit crazy
If everything I did
To me always seemed hazy
If I forgot what I said
If I dressed like a wreck
If I'd lose my head
If it weren't attatched to my neck

Sometimes I feel like
All my words are falling
On to deaf ears
Because no one's calling
Calling me back
To ask me how I feel
Maybe they don't care
So this is how I deal
I sit in the dark
So I can't see
The scary thing is
That I'm stuck here with me

Would you hate me
If I were different everytime I woke up
If I'd go to talk
But always get choked up
Because I'm whispering to myself
'You can't handle it
Its beyond your control
Just leave here and abandon it
It's time to go'
So I drop my dreams
Let them smash on the floor
Life is exactly what it seems
Love is money, I'm dead poor

So I ask
Am I crazy
Maybe
But so what
You are too
We all are
It's nothing new
Just face it
Don't turn your back on it
Embrace it

Live like you're dead
With nothing to fear
Because if I died tomorrow
I wouldn't waste today here
I wouldn't waste another tear
But I do know that my time is near
This is coming increasingly clear
I won't be around for another year
It is time for the premiere
Of my new life on the frontier
To all those thinking this is insincere
That this was something I had to engineer
I'll tell you, this is a boat that I didn't steer

So what do you think
Am I crazy
I don't know
Maybe
I must be
I'm still here
