I've lost my mind In the middle of an apartment store I'm sweating, shaking, speaking in tongue On the perfume counter floor I put myself between a gear and a hard place I think I chose a bad machine Sitting under a watchful eye for weeks I'm just a bird without wings I'm sorry to cause you pain But I acted out of need I never loved my life But I loved my misery And here she comes Chasing the ambulance From my window I can see Her trailing behind I put myself between a gear and a hard place I think I chose a bad machine How do you stop a building from burning? Sometimes you just gotta leave I'm sorry to cause you pain But I acted out of need How do I break into her? She means nothing to me And I know, and I know it gets scary when they turn out the lights All love is a headache and a snake I've seen the isle in the dark of my own skull How do you stop a building from burning? My skull My skull My skull
