lyrics
LYRICS:
Welcome, I'm Strange
Lost and deranged
This is my world,
The wonderful world of weird!
Nobody sees this tormenting me,
It's all in my mind, there's nothing to see,
Endless creations that live inside me,
Won't leave me alone until they're set free
Nothing else matters apart from these dreams
It's 24/7 but I don't know what they mean
This is my brain,
Slightly insane
Mr. Strange is what they call me,
With good reason, now you will see.
Welcome to the mind of a lunatic
Come and meet the man who's lost in this shit
Stuck inside creations so surreal and weird,
It's half pure bliss half pure fear,
Happy as Larry, my madness is married,
To me, to me! It's meant to be,
Musical melodies from the beyond,
They flow from me to you and then they're gone,
You don't complain so I assume you like it,
You're nodding your head and don't seem to fight it
The lights are on but there's nobody home,
I'm off in the clouds with adoring crowds,
They praise my weirdness and say I'm the best,
I must agree, who am I to contest,
Welcome to the mind of a lunatic
Come and meet the man who's lost in this shit
Stuck inside creations so surreal and weird,
It's half pure bliss half pure fear,
Think this is fun?
Hell yeah!
Stare at the sun
Double dare!
Don't want to run?
Nowhere!
So now we let the games begin!
Life's a game and I like to play it,
Life's a game but don't you dare say it,
Day by day it's more of the same shit,
(But I escape it)
Welcome, I'm Strange
Lost and deranged
This is my world,
The wonderful world of weird!
I paint a picture with these words
Create new worlds with these sounds
Lift your head out of the dirt
Allow yourself to be astounded
Welcome to my mind
The strangest dreams are alive
No such thing as time
In this universe of mine
Forget this world that you know
I've got a whole new show
Forget it all and let go,
Ride this undertow
I have metamorphosised
Into something man-sized
Genius unrecognised,
I'll make the Gods cry
Your world rejected me,
But revenge will be mine!
I rise above envy
To commit the greatest crime
Societies demise
Chaos theory will rise
Conspiracies will cry
Your world will slowly die
Hello there, I'm glad you volunteered,
To see my Wonderful World Of Weird,
My dreams manifest physically,
The sound waves are a tsunami,
I reject your world and all you stand for,
Don't blame me because I want a little more,
Join me and live in my world,
Sing along all you boys and girls!
The Wonderful World Of Weird!
The Wonderful World Of Weird!
The Wonderful World Of Weird!
The Wonderful World Of Weird!
