Ballad of Dwight Frye

"Mommy, where's daddy?
He's been gone such a long time
Do you think he'll ever come back?"

I was gone for fourteen days
Could've been gone for more
Locked up in an intensive care ward
Lyin' on the floor

I was gone for all those days
But I was not alone
I made a lot of friends there
In the danger zone

See my lonely life unfold
I see it every day
See my only mind explode
When I've gone away

I guess I lost some weight there
And I could use some rest
Sleeping don't come very easy
In a straight white vest

Sure would love to see the little children
She's only five years old
I'd give her back all of her play things
Even the ones I stole

See my lonely life unfold
I see it everyday
See my only mind explode
When I've gone insane

See my lonely life unfold
I see it everyday
See my only mind explode
Blow up in my face

I grabbed my coat and I got my hat
And I ran into the street
I saw a man who was choking there
I guess he couldn't breathe

This all seems so very strange
I'm glad it wasn't me
But then I hear those sirens callin'
And I know that I can't be free

See my lonely life unfold
I see it everyday
See my only mind explode
When I've gone insane

See my lonely life unfold
I see it everyday
See my only mind explode
Blow up in my face
