"Crazy"

I remember when, I remember, I remember when I lost my mindThere was something so pleasant about that place.Even your emotions had an echoIn so much space

And when you're out thereWithout care,Yeah, I was out of touchBut it wasn't because I didn't know enoughI just knew too much

Does that make me crazy?Does that make me crazy?Does that make me crazy?Possibly [radio version]probably [album version]

And I hope that you are having the time of your lifeBut think twice, that's my only advice

Come on now, who do you, who do you, who do you, who do you think you are,Ha ha ha bless your soulYou really think you're in control

Well, I think you're crazyI think you're crazyI think you're crazyJust like me

My heroes had the heart to lose their lives out on a limbAnd all I remember is thinking, I want to be like themEver since I was little, ever since I was little it looked like funAnd it's no coincidence I've comeAnd I can die when I'm done

Maybe I'm crazyMaybe you're crazyMaybe we're crazyProbably
