GMy muse walked me through my dizzy drunken dream
FYoung lovers making heat on a summer night
FHer lily skin burning naked and bright
CWe confessed to each other that we felt the same
GShe pulled me in close and slowly breathed my name
FWish I could stare again into those eager honest eyes
FThat now in my mind glare at me with despise

Everybody's crazy for pretending they're not

Used to be as kids but I guess we forgot

How many years does it take to unlearn

Forgotten and rusted like all of my dreams

Maybe the best thing that I can do is

Begin again and start things a new

Not care if people call me insane

Live and love like I've never been hurt

Come home happy covered in dirt
