Out My Head

Seal our souls soundless in a bottle
Send them swimming out to sea
I got lost in the gravel in the grotto
Don't know what come over me
But all I am, and all I know is
Shriveled and shivers in the cold

I must have been out my head to think I don't need you
To think I don't need you out my head
To never let your heartbeat beat me up and tie me down
Out my head to think that I could leave you
And then lead you out my head
To leave the flame and think that it would flicker out

Frenzied fiction flashes on the page
All twists and the ending's a mystery
I got lost grabbing out from the grave
Don't know what come over me
No dog-eared corners, the bookmark's a guess
Lagging and lacking, I'm directionless

I must have been out my head to think I don't need you
To think I don't need you out my head
To think that I could ever find my place again
Out my head to think that I could leave you
And then lead you out my head
To lose the page and think I could predict the end

It sounds crazy I know, but the pattern keeps repeating
A living tessellation, a tiling that draws me to leaving
It sounds insane but if I tried to change nothing would be different
A living tessellation, motives seem irrelevant
I'll let cool water find its way inside the glass
And burn the book until it sublimates into gas
And never ask if

I must have been out my head to think I don't need you
Don't need you out my head
To never let your heartbeat beat me up and tie me down
Out my head to think that I could leave you
And then lead you out my head
To leave the flame and think that it would flicker out
My head to think I don't need you
Don't need you out my head
To think I could ever find my place again
Out my head to think that I could leave you
And then lead you out my head
To lose the place and think I could predict the end
The pattern keeps repeating
Out my head
I'll never find my place again
