Lyrics

[CHORUS]
I'm One Of The Crazies
its not that I'm lazy
you don't have to try so hard to talk to me
there is just no use to

[VERSE]
Never surfacing but always on the surface
creeping through the cracks like an army at the gates of a city
as I duct tape the seams
(I deteriorate faster)
its sad but its all documented
inside me relentless machinery
hard-wired to echo intelligent design
living in this machine its hard not to panic
or grow a little bit manic

[VERSE]
I can carry on a conversation
for a half an hour or more
and not remember what was said
this tunnel vision allows multiple modes of auto-pilot
my residence is 1350 cubic centimeters
but you'd never know it
cuz I've been wandering its halls all my life
(chasing my tail)
