Lyrics
Delusional
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 cry in restaurants and not because I dine alone
I have a therapist to clarify what I already know
I tell myself I'm quirky and that no one gets me
As my mental health deteriorates before me slowly
I'm delusional (but I hide it nicely)
But I don't know (how far it'll get me)
When my world starts crumbling down, I leave my body all together
And return when things get better
I leave the light on at night because I'm afraid of ghost
Only ironically as far as anybody knows
I lie about things that sound worse than the actual truth
I think I'm fine while everybody worries what I will do
I'm delusional (but I hide it nicely)
But I don't know (how far it'll get me)
When my world starts crumbling down, I leave my body all together
And return when things get better
I won't be gone long
If it's urgent, you can medicate me back home
I'll try to stay for you, but the world is too cruel
I'm delusional (but I hide it nicely)
But I don't know (how far it'll get me)
When my world starts crumbling down, I leave my body all together
And return when things get better
