Haywired
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I must've had a peculiar kind of charm
For you to fall in love with me
With my bird's nest hair, pompon arms
I thought you'd never think of me
My heart and mind they were a circus
My thoughts and vision had no focus on what's in front of me
I felt like I had been asleep a thousand years
And life would remain a mystery
Oh please don't break me from this spell
I found a little heaven in this world of hell
Oh I'm a bad liar I'll miss you so much I go haywired
Lost my mind on New Year's Eve
Burnt a hole inside my head I knew I'd marry you
The self destructive don't believe that there's a crisis they could leave
And then I married you
I know many different people who keep on falling in love
With the idea of love
I take your head out of the clouds
And carefree vagabond it comes to all of us
Oh please don't break me from this spell
I've found a little heaven in this world of hell
Oh I'm a bad liar I'll miss you so much I go haywired
It's not easy to be happy
Get away with it
It's not easy to be happy
Get away with it
It's not easy to be happy
Get away with it
It's not easy to be happy
Get away with it
It's not easy to be happy
Get away with it
It's not easy to be happy
Get away with it
It's not easy to be happy
Get away with it
It's not easy to be happy
Get away, get away with it
Oh it's not easy to be happy
Get away with it
It's not easy to be happy
Get away with it
