(Sometimes it feels like I'm in a dream
or, a nightmare
but I'm awake
and, I'm doing things but
I'm not meaning to do them
and even though it's a nightmare
I feel happy inside)
I've done some things in my life
that you may think are crazy
a little different from the rest
I get my pleasure from the pain.
I've got some ghosts who follow me
you may think I'm crazy
but in the night I know I
feel alright.
I SEE SPIRITS ALL AROUND ME
AS I TRY TO UNDERSTAND
WHAT MAKES ME DO THE THINGS I DO
TO EVERYONE AROUND ME
AND I BET YOU NEVER KNEW
I COULD HAVE REGRETS
FOR ALL THE THINGS THAT
MAKE YOU SEE RED
BUT ALL I SEE IS PURPLE INSTEAD!
I smile in the face of what's to come
we can try but we can't run
from the fate we bring upon ourselves.
It's just a dream, it's just a dream
but that doesn't mean
my waking life is not a nightmare.
I SEE SPIRITS ALL AROUND ME
AS I TRY TO UNDERSTAND
WHAT MAKES ME DO THE THINGS I DO
TO EVERYONE AROUND ME
AND I BET YOU NEVER KNEW
I COULD HAVE REGRETS
FOR ALL THE THINGS THAT
MAKE YOU SEE RED
BUT ALL I SEE IS PURPLE INSTEAD!
This is the end of me...
They got the best of me...
Now justice has been served...
Oh well
live and learn.
I SEE SPIRITS ALL AROUND ME
AS I TRY TO UNDERSTAND
WHAT MAKES ME DO THE THINGS I DO
TO EVERYONE AROUND ME
AND I BET YOU NEVER KNEW
I COULD HAVE REGRETS
FOR ALL THE THINGS THAT
MAKE YOU SEE RED
BUT ALL I SEE IS PURPLE INSTEAD!
