I used to think about what's real and true,
what cannot be proven, what can be assumed.
Once when I was younger in the bloom of youth,
I received an honest answer when a lie would do.
And now all I do is sit in my darkened room
and on occasion break my silence to howl at the moon.
To curse every nerve and neuron in my brain
that won't stop the pain I'm feeling and let me stop thinking.
Interlude
I used to think Galileo would agree
that the world was round and you'd come round to me.
But I have looked for you and you're nowhere in sight;
the world must be flat, the Babylonians were right.
And now all I do is sit in my darkened room
and on occasion break my silence to howl at the moon.
To curse every nerve and neuron in my brain
that won't stop the pain I'm feeling and let me stop thinking.
Interlude
I used to think: consider gravity,
but I placed you on a pedestal you'd slip and fall for me.
But you floated on the air, far away at light speed,
I guess some objects do defy the laws that we conceive.
And now all I do is sit in my darkened room
and on occasion break my silence to howl at the moon.
To curse every nerve and neuron in my brain
that won't stop the pain I'm feeling and let me stop thinking.
Interlude
Stop thinking of you.
Stop thinking of you.
Stop thinking of you.
Interlude
I used to think it took all my time,
analyzing you your mind on my mind.
Your name, my mantra, repeated on my lips,
that once tried to kiss you, a memory unrepressed.
And now all I do is sit in my darkened room
and on occasion break my silence to howl at the moon.
To curse every nerve and neuron in my brain
that won't stop the pain I'm feeling and let me stop thinking.
