I remember when, I remember,
I remember when I lost my mind
There was something so pleasant about that PHASE
Even your emotions had an echo
In so much space
And when you’re out there
Without care,
Yeah, I was out of touch
But it wasn’t because I didn’t know enough
I just knew too much
Does that make me crazy
Does that make me crazy
Does that make me crazy
Possibly
And I hope that you are having the time of your life
But think twice, that´s my only advice
Come on now, who do you,
who do you, who do you, who do you think you are,
Ha, ha, ha, bless your soul
You really think you´re in control
Well, I think you’re crazy
I think you´re crazy
I think you´re crazy
Just like me
My heroes had the heart to Lose their lives out on a limb
And all I remember
Is thinking, I want to be like them
Ever since I was little,
Ever since I was little it looked like fun
And it´s no coincidence I´ve come
And I can die when I’m done
Maybe I’m crazy
Maybe you’re crazy
Maybe we’re crazy
Probably…
