about

Turns out I'm a bit madder than I thought.

lyrics

A little creature in the back of my mind
A little songbird singing
She entertains me when I’m wasting my time
I hear the echo ringing
I’d never know it if you told it to me straight
I have to see it from the corner of my eye
I need the patience if I’m going to wait
If I’m going to try

‘Cause these are the words that she said
The other body sleeping in my bed
Living off the songs inside my head
The messages are calling from the dead

I’m here for you

And I don’t know if I can let it be real
In my imagination
I may be broken but I’m trying to heal
Without an amputation
And I don’t care, I won’t surrender to the words
Won’t clip my wings if I was born to fly
‘Cause I got used to being followed by the birds
In the clouds, the sky

‘Cause these are the words that she said
The other body sleeping in my bed
Living off the songs inside my head
The messages are calling from the dead

I’m here for you

You’re calling me an alter so I’m altering my voice
Confusing my identity, it’s multiple choice
There’s something in my head that’s got me not quite right
So keep me company and cuddle me to get me through the night
It’s tragic that the magic’s not a tragedy play
I’m living with the crazy and I like it that way
I’m dancing on a toadstool ran away with the fae
Give me a reason to stay

‘Cause these are the words that she said
The other body sleeping in my bed
Living off the songs inside my head
The messages are calling from the dead

I’m here for you
