Sanity
Sanity this thing you say exists
Is it real or is it ignorant bliss
Do you see her standing in the hall?
Are you laughing at me
Did the voices take control?
The demon on my ceiling
Is scratching at his head
He says that I should scream right now
And hide under the bed
I tell him I wont do it
Get out I say
Get out
Petunia the Sea Goddess says
Do you really have to shout?
I'm sorry I'm so sorry!
I don't mean to offend
Maybe it'll all solve out
If i tap three times with my hand
Yesterday I was so happy
I was soaring on bat wings
Today I'm feeling down and out
Cecilia says I stink
Stink she says?
Ill show her stink
I use my shit to write on walls
Now their really coming
I hear their footsteps down the halls
Gerardo the security guard
He likes to cop a feel
He pulls me to the ground
I begin to scream for real
Yeah they're really coming now
I sing to drown their voices
Sanity seems nice right now
But it ain't one of my choices
