How Crazy
I shove my cold guitar into its caseThere are still a ton of people passing byBut that’s all I feel like doing for today, getting all right
The advice of adults I couldn’t respectI thought: “I don’t want to be like you”
I get on the subway in my dirty jeansI see myself reflected in the windowI haven’t changed, I’m still the way I was then
I wish I had a little money
How crazyStop talking about meLike you understandHow crazyI’ve run off a shipThat was sinking in the deep ocean
Dreams and love love loveI can never stay innocent, how crazy
The stairs that lead up out of the stationAre always dark, and they make me nervous
In the carpark of the convenience stor at sunsetChildren who don’t know what tomorrow will bringGive me a little wave
Give me a hint about how not to give in in the futureI want to persuade them, but the words don’t come out rightIt’s no good like this, they don’t get it
Oh, God, I think it’s a little unfair
How crazyStop talking about meLike you understandHow crazyI’ve run off a shipThat was sinking in the deep ocean
Dreams and love love loveI can never stay innocent, how crazy
Those students keep on tryingBut if they don’t get the results, then their families will surely be sadEven if you say you know how to get on in lifeWith a life that’s so hard to respect, babyHow much longer are you going to keep carrying aroundThose feelings full of contradictions?
How crazyStop talking about meLike you understandHow crazyI’ve run off a shipThat was sinking in the deep ocean
Dreams and love love loveI can never stay innocent, how crazy
I quietly picked upMy cold guitar againAnd sang alone again like I did then
