Chemical

I'll lay it out for you if I am able

It's more complicated than I could invent

It takes a knowledge of the periodic table

And I am miles out of my element

But it's all my fault

For making something bound to be volatile

Shake it up, shake it up, grab it

It's all my fault

For always trying to break a molecule

Instead of this habit

I know this isn't love

What was I thinking

But I have not been drinking

So it must be chemical

I need the antidote

For what you slipped me

My heart is tripping

So it must be chemical

I've got my finger on this lithium illusion

And i'm refusing to participate

I was blinded by a different kind of fusion

Now i'm starting to hallucinate

But it's all my fault

For always trying to mix my metaphors

Haven't we been through this

It's all my fault

For swearing that we'd both be better off for it

Under the influence

I know this isn't love

What was I thinking

But I have not been drinking

So it must be chemical

I need the antidote

For what you slipped me

My heart is tripping

So it must be chemical

I'm in the market for a seed of what i'm taking

I want to grow it in my backyard

The high is good so long as everyone is faking

It's in the morning when you come down hard

It's all my fault

For dabbling alone in chemistry

Thought it was easy

And it's all my fault

For believing that you're little mystery drug

Could please me

I know this isn't love

What was I thinking

But I have not been drinking

So it must be chemical

I need the antidote

For what you slipped me

My heart is tripping

So it must be chemical
